Tart, tangy, and brilliantly ruby-red — sumac is the secret weapon of Middle Eastern cooking, and one of the most underrated spices in the modern pantry. Ground from the dried berries of the sumac shrub, it delivers a bright, lemony acidity without the sharpness of citrus, adding a fruity depth that lifts everything it touches.
Sprinkle it over hummus, fattoush, or grilled meats for an instant hit of colour and flavour. Stir it through yoghurt dressings, dust it over roasted vegetables, or use it to finish a dish the way a chef would — with confidence and intention. Once sumac finds its way into your kitchen, it never leaves.
