Authentic Jenin Heritage in Every Spoon

The Jenin region of northern Palestine is celebrated for its olive trees, wild herbs, and fertile soil. Farmers here have perfected the art of cultivating and drying wild thyme for generations, creating a zaatar blend that stands out for its bold aroma and balanced flavor. The thyme is hand-harvested, sun-dried, and mixed with sumac and toasted sesame seeds to create a perfectly harmonized taste. Every batch is made using traditional methods, free of artificial preservatives or additives, ensuring a product that is as pure and natural as the land it comes from.

Unlike commercial zaatar mixes that rely on fillers or excessive salt, Palestinian Zaatar from Jenin is made exclusively from high-quality, ethically sourced ingredients. Each element is chosen to reflect the region’s agricultural excellence and deep-rooted food traditions.

Ingredients & Flavor Profile

Our Jenin Zaatar Mix Extra is composed of:

• Wild Thyme: Freshly harvested from Jenin’s hills for a fragrant, herbal foundation.
• Toasted Sesame Seeds: Add a nutty crunch and richness that balance the thyme’s aroma.
• Sumac: Contributes a mild citrus tang for a refreshing flavor lift.
• Olive Oil & Sea Salt: Tie the flavors together while maintaining the blend’s authenticity.

This combination results in a zaatar mix that is aromatic, slightly tangy, and delightfully earthy—perfect for traditional and modern dishes alike.

Health Benefits of Zaatar

In addition to its delicious taste, zaatar seasoning is rich in nutrients and antioxidants. Wild thyme has natural antibacterial properties and aids in digestion, while sesame seeds provide calcium, iron, and healthy fats.
