Sumac, a spice with a unique taste
The aroma of sumac spice is a harmonious blend of the lively acidity of lemon and more woody notes. This exceptional spice, carefully harvested in the mountains of Lebanon, brings a unique depth of flavour to your dishes.
How to use Sumac
Sumac is a versatile Oriental condiment that is gradually making its way into Western cuisine.
In Roman times, sumac was used as a tangy ingredient before the cultivation of lemons. Intense and long on the palate, it is the perfect ingredient to complete the seasoning of a salad, spice up a marinade, grilled meat and fish. It can be sprinkled at the end of cooking on roasted vegetables, sauces, rice or cereal dishes and can even be added to hummus or yoghurt-based dips, adding a colourful, flavourful note to your culinary creations.
Where do Sumac seeds come from?
Sumac's red powder comes from the bunches of the Rhus Coriaria shrub, a member of the Anacardiaceae family.
We grow it high up in the Lebanese mountains, without pesticides or fertilisers.
Harvesting takes place at the end of the summer, when the bunches, bathed in sunlight, have taken on a beautiful red hue.
After harvesting, the sumac bunches are sorted and the leaves removed. The bunches are left to dry in the sun for 10 days before being ground.
Benefits of Sumac
