Sumac comes from wild berries indigenous to the Middle East and Mediterranean.  It’s earthy texture and tangy lemon flavor make it a perfect alternate to lemon and salt (it’s less acidic).

It is used in Za’atar wild thyme blends, to make the famous Fattoush salad, on hummus and baba ghanouj, as vegetable seasoning, including eggplant and cauliflower, with pita chips, lamb, eggs, chicken, fish, with lemonade and more.

The Romans even used sumac as a souring agent before using lemon.
