Sumac is the secret weapon of Middle Eastern cooking, and Villa Jarada's version is the real thing. Harvested from wild bushes in Turkey, these deep red berries are dried and groun d into a bright, tangy powder with notes of cherry and citrus that no other spice quite replaces. Reach for it anywhere you'd use lemon or vinegar, but want more color, more complexity, more soul. Whisk it into dressings and marinades, rub it onto lamb, chicken, or fish, stir it into yogurt, or dust it over hummus and roasted vegetables. That stunning burgundy hue even works over fruit, dark chocolate, or ice cream. What to cook with it: Fattoush salad, grilled chicken, lentil salads, yogurt sauces, dry rubs, and anywhere a dish needs a bright, fruity lift. Weight: 2.1 oz | Glass jar Show more
