This aromatic mixture from North Africa is also found in Turkey and Jordan.  It is sprinkled over tajines and vegetables.  Tunisian cooks make a paste of it with olive oil and spread it on bread before baking. The cayenne is optional.  Sumac seeds are found in Middle Eastern markets.

Ingredients


  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 2 tablespoons dried sumac seeds
  • 1 tablespoon powdered dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne


Instructions


Dry-roast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes, stirring frequently.  Allow to cool, then mix with the sumac, thyme, and cayenne.
