Ground Sumac is made from the dried, ground berries of the Rhus coriaria shrub. Known for its bright, tangy, lemon-like flavor and deep red color, sumac is a staple seasoning in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cooking.

Its sharp, fruity acidity makes it a go-to finishing spice for grilled meats, roasted vegetables, salads, rice dishes, and dips like hummus. Sumac is often used as a substitute for lemon or vinegar when a dry, citrusy punch is preferred. It pairs well with zaatar, chicken, fish, fresh herbs, and yogurt-based dishes.

Whether used as a garnish or a main seasoning, Sumac adds a clean, vibrant flavor and a signature red hue to a wide variety of recipes.
