- 1 tablespoon dried thyme- crushed ( or sub oregano)
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin ( see note)
- 1 tablespoon ground coriander
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon sumac
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon or more aleppo chili flakes- optional
-
Mix all the ingredients together in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container.
-
For the most flavor, toast whole seeds ( cumin and coriander seeds) until fragrant, then grind. This will make the most flavorful zaatar. If you don’t have whole seeds, feel free to use ground spices.

I bought toasted ground spices from the store, since those were available, and it saves me time
