Zaatar Straws

Zaatar Straws

A savory Middle Eastern spice mix, zaatar typically includes sesame seeds, thyme, marjoram, and sumac and is often sprinkled onto pita bread spread with thick, strained yogurt (labneh). Here, we sprinkled zaatar onto puff-pastry straws and paired them with a creamy, garlicky yogurt dip. Prep and Cook Time: about 40 minutes. Notes: The amounts given here are just guidelines; use any amount of pastry you have on hand, but try to roll it into a rough rectangle to begin with. Find puff pastry in boxes in your supermarket's freezer section. Zaatar is available at Middle Eastern markets and gourmet grocery stores.
