Premium Zahtar Spice Blend
Earthy, tangy, and nutty perfection for everyday Mediterranean flavour. 🌿✨
Discover the heartbeat of Middle Eastern cuisine. SpiceBloom’s Premium Zahtar (also known as Za'atar) is a classic, vibrant herb and spice blend that effortlessly breathes life into the simplest of ingredients. By masterfully combining earthy mixed herbs, the irresistible crunch of roasted sesame seeds, and the bright, lemony pop of sumac, this blend creates an incredibly addictive, multi-dimensional flavour profile.
The ultimate kitchen staple. You will quickly find yourself sprinkling this over everything. Whether you are whisking it into olive oil for a rustic bread dip, dusting it over fresh salmon fillets, or folding it into Greek yoghurt, Zahtar instantly transforms your everyday meals into a vibrant Mediterranean feast.
Bright Citrus. Earthy Crunch.
The Magic of Sumac
Sumac provides a gorgeous, tangy, lemon-like brightness that naturally enhances the rich flavours of roasted vegetables and fresh fish.
Aromatic & Earthy
Premium mixed herbs (including traditional thyme notes) create a deeply savoury, herbaceous foundation that pairs perfectly with olive oil.
Beautiful Texture
Roasted sesame seeds deliver a delicate, nutty crunch, adding an irresistible textural element to flatbreads, salads, and dips.
Everyday Uses
Breads & Pizza
Mix directly with quality olive oil and brush generously onto pita breads or pizza bases before baking for a classic, fragrant crust.
Fish & Chicken
Brush salmon fillets or chicken breasts with a little oil and sprinkle heavily with Zahtar before pan-frying or roasting.
Yoghurt & Dips
Stir into plain Greek yoghurt or hummus, and finish with a drizzle of olive oil for the ultimate, effortless entertaining dip.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does Zahtar taste like?
It is a beautifully balanced, savoury experience! You first taste the earthy, aromatic mixed herbs (like thyme), followed by the nutty crunch of the roasted sesame seeds, and finally, a tart, citrusy finish provided by the sumac.
Is it a spicy heat?
Not at all! Zahtar contains zero chillies. It is entirely focused on delivering herbaceous, tangy, and earthy flavours, making it exceptionally family-friendly.
What is the best way to use it as a dip?
The most authentic way is to pour some high-quality extra virgin olive oil into a shallow bowl and aggressively stir in the Zahtar until it forms a loose paste. Simply tear off pieces of warm pita bread and dip right in!

Creamy and nourishing. Great addition to my meaty spicy stew. Real food from our Mother Earth how life should be. Organic food is my Medicine ✌🏼🖤🤍♥️🌈🌱
Lovely experience shopping with SpiceBloom. The website was easy to use, the product information was clear, and my order arrived well packaged. I really appreciate the quality of the ingredients and the care put into the range. I’d happily shop here again.
Lovely quality cacao nibs. They taste fresh, rich, and chocolatey with that natural slightly bitter crunch you expect from pure raw cacao. I love that they’re 100% organic with no added sugar or extras. Great sprinkled over smoothie bowls, coconut yoghurt, baking, or homemade treats. Would happily buy again.
Nice sprinkled on air-fried potato fries. Gives a citrus peppery taste
I sprinkle a teaspoon into my scrambled eggs, gives an earthy flavor. A good way to get some greens in.
Really delish.
Really flavors a meal without having the labor of peeling & chopping onions.
Love the Spicy Sunflower Seeds.
