The tang of lemon, without a single drop of juice. Ground from the dried berries of the sumac shrub, the organic Sumac from Place des Épices has a vibrant red color and a fruity, tangy flavor reminiscent of lemon, bringing brightness to a dish without adding liquid. A staple of Middle Eastern cooking and an essential ingredient of za’atar, it proves a formidable, versatile ally in the kitchen. Sprinkle it over a fattoush, a tabbouleh, or a simple tomato salad.
