There are infinite uses for Zaatar spice mix and here is one of my favorites.
Like my Egyptian Feta Cheese Dip there is no real recipe to this dip. Just crumble some Feta cheese in a bowl, mix in some olive oil until you get the consistency of a thick dip and flavor with a couple of teaspoons of Zaatar mix.
Serve with toasted pita chips.
With so many good Middle Eastern food stores around these days a store bought Za’atar brand will save you the time but if you want to make your mix to suite your taste, here is the recipe.
