An herbaceous, nutty, crunchy topping for hummus, goat cheese, fried eggs, or avocado toast! Classically used as a rub for chicken, lamb or fish, or as a dipping spice with olive oil and fresh bread or pita. Great for topping soups and rice.
Our version is made with whole rather than ground spices, and includes California Chilis—a mild, aromatic chili that adds a beautiful color and flavor without much heat. It's a great alternative to an "Everything Bagel" seasoning for when you don't want a blast of garlic or onions.
As with all our blends, it’s made fresh every couple of months in small batches and dated to ensure best flavor.
Ingredients: Toasted Sesame Seeds, Thyme, Sumac, Sea Salt, California Chili.
