so good

so happy i got this product to try. my boyfriend is arab and loves to use zaatar when he cooks, so this was great to use. i would definitely recommend this to others,

Plein de saveurs!

J'ai bien aimé ce type d'épices. Je m'en suis servi pour faire des keftas sur le barbecue. Le mélange d'épices étaient parfait pour ce type de plat. Par contre, je n'ai pas aimé le type de fermeture du sac, car pour le sac que j'ai essayé, je n'étais pas capable de le maintenir fermé. Après avoir vu le prix du sac d'épices en épicerie , pas sûre que j'en achèterais.

Authentic flavours

Absolutely loved this spice blend. i was so impressed with the straightforward ingredients, even sumac, in the ingredient list. even more impressed that there was nothing that shouldn't be there. i made a wet rub of this with olive oil, a bit of salt, and a splash of apple cider vinegar. I rubbed it over chicken pieces and baked it. the chicken was juicy and super authentically flavoured! i added the drippings to steamed broccoli and noodles. it made for a very easy and delicious meal!

flavourful blend

I wasnt sure what to expect with the Knorr Zaatar blend.I followed the recipe and bought the additional ingredients to make the grilled chicken zaatar.It was simple and easy and i was pleased the way it turned out.It was visually appealing,fragrant and looked great.My family enjoyed the presentation and flavour. It was something different to serve but not my favorite meal.

So much flavour for everything!

I used this za'atar spice blend to make one of the Knorr recipes, but I found that it was overwhelmed by some of the other ingredients.
So I started putting it in my scrambled eggs in the morning, and this has been one of the best breakfast additions I've come across. Just the right amount of savoury flavour!

Just found a new best friend in the kitchen

I was provided this complementary sample as part of the Family Rated Sampling and Review program, and I honestly can say, this was a delight to use and review.

I cook a lot of the traditional "land of cedar" recipes as my friends will call it. I am not Lebanese by birth, but I have embraced it's culture and traditions in my culinary skills.

I used this spice in my cooking of Hashweh. Hashweh (which translates to stuffing) is a traditional Lebanese rice dish made with ground beef or lamb, pine nuts and dates, seasoned with an aromatic blend of baking spices. This time rather than having to combine and blend all the spices myself, I used this mix, as is, 1:1 for my recipe, and I was NOT disappointed.

All the traditional notes and flavors were present, and well balanced. Sure it was not exactly the same as my own... but it was all the elements I would expect in my own combination, and it was the closest and most authentic blend I have ever been able to come by. Nice to know that it is now available in a pre-blended format for the culinary artists' convenience. It takes out the guess work of trying to remember to have all the elements represented in your creation.

I definitely will be buying more of this, just to have on hand in a pinch, and I have already told many others about it. Now they know my secret spice blend that goes in my cabbage rolls, not to mention my stuffed grape leaves.

Sure, it will never be as good as my own combination, but it is truly the closest thing to perfection on the market.

Great flavour!

I made the recipe highlighted on the knorr website for Grilled Chicken Lebanese. It was a new flavour profile for me and I loved it! Again, easy to use and very versatile as well. Could use it again and again. Made oven roasted potatoes as a side and the sauce to accompany the chicken, was also amazing with my potatoes. The spice mix smells awesome and I was especially excited when I mixed them in, the smell of the marinade was amazing. On the grill, wow! I wanted to have seconds! Quick and easy. Love the mix.

New Recipes to Try Out

Knorr Taste of Lebanon Za’atar Seasoning Blend was something new for us to try and I really enjoyed it. Not the normal palate for our household but we are into trying new recipes. Works well with chicken and rice dish and I think I would also try it with as a potato dish. The seasoning is very easy to add in and you do not need to use a lot of it for some great flavour.
While I liked this product, I may or may not buy this specific seasoning again just as its not a flavour we cook with as much. I would buy others from the Knorr Seasoning line again and recommend it to family and friends. I received this product to try and review for free as part of the Family Rated Product Review Club.

Flavour Profile Not For Me

I was chosen to participate in the Knorr campaign and received this product. #gotitfree I'd never tried za'atar before so didn't know what to expect. The spice blend comes in a plastic pouch with a zip-top closing, which I really liked. It smells great in the pouch and while cooking. I made the yogurt marinated grilled chicken recipe I found on the Knorr site. However, I could not get over the very heavy floral note in the taste. It just put me off. With no reference point, I'm not sure if it is typical of za'atar, or if it is just this spice blend. I won't be using this product again, but will pass it on to a friend who is more familiar with za'atar and may enjoy it more than I.

Amazing taste and aroma

First of all thanks to knorr and family rated club for sending me this product for testing purposes. I have added a little bit of this seasoning in rice and my rice turns very tasty and everybody likes that unique aroma which is coming out from the rice. Really, I was a bit scared because I never use this kinda blend before but after the first use, I think this seasoning is going to have a permanent space in my kitchen.
Thanks, again family rated club and knorr .
