All about the bundle:

Pomegranate Molasses

This pure pomegranate molasses is made in small batches in Koura, Lebanon by our friends the Maaloufs. Pomegranates indigenous to the region are carefully selected and harvested every fall to create a delicate sweet-tart balance. The juice is boiled in large pots over olive wood fires to thicken. Magical!

RECIPE IDEAS:

• Lebanese Fattoush Salad
• Roasted Pepper Dip (Muhummara)
• Caprese Salad with Pomegranate and Mint

Lebanon Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Pure, fresh Lebanese extra virgin olive oil from hand-picked olives in the Koura Valley of Lebanon, along the Mediterranean Sea. This oil is smooth yet has a distinct, lush olive flavor. Delicious for everyday cooking, for your salads, and atop your hummus and other dips.

RECIPE IDEAS:

• Olive Oil Cake
  
• Best Homemade Hummus Recipe
• Lebanese Salad

Lebanese Za'atar Spice

Our za'atar spice is a blend of imported Lebanese wild thyme, sumac, toasted sesame seeds, and fine sea salt. The flavor is bright, tangy, and nutty -- a spice collection necessity! Try za'atar stirred into  good extra-virgin olive oil as a topping for Lebanese flatbread, or simply as a dip for pita bread. 

RECIPE IDEAS:

• What is za'atar, and how to cook with it
• Za'atar flatbread, man'oushe
• Za'atar Kale Chips

Lebanese 7 Spice

Lebanese 7 Spice (or baharat) is an incredibly fragrant blend of spices that impart a traditional Arabic flavor to your food. The 7 spices are black pepper, paprika, cumin, cloves, coriander, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cardamom. Just a pinch of this vibrant blend will wake up your dishes with wonderful flavor!

RECIPE IDEAS:

• Lebanese-style Chili
• Simple 7 Spice Chicken
• Olive Oil Chex Mix with 7 Spice

Olive Tapenade with Za'atar

We love all things olive, and that includes this lush black olive tapenade brightened with za'atar, Lebanese thyme. From our friends the Maaloufs, this jar of goodness is made from ripened Souri olives, harvested in season. A touch of Maalouf's own extra virgin olive oil and za'atar spice makes this tapenade a fabulous and unique addition to your:

• Mezze
• Cheese Board
• Charcouterie

Tahini

This tahini is a balanced, nutty (with no nuts of course), never-bitter classic sesame tahini. The smoothness of Soom tahini sets it apart, along with its rich flavor. A pantry must-have.

RECIPE IDEAS:

• Tahini Sauce
• Lebanese Spicy Fish with Tahini Sauce
• Chocolate Tahini Breakfast Rolls

Lebanese Redhead Hot Sauce

We'd buy this sauce just for it's clever brand name! Yet the sauce is all that and more: a mild heat that is just spicy enough while allowing the other inspired ingredients to shine. Peppers and dates are blended for that balanced sweet heat we love so much. Coffee and lemon bring excellent tang and depth. 

We keep this hot sauce at the ready for essentially every meal of the day:

• In a Mediterranean 7-Layer Dip
• On eggs and veggies for breakfast
• Stirred into yogurt as a spread or a dip
• A few dashes on cottage cheese for a snappy snack
• Tossed with chicken wings
• In marinades and sauces
