For me there are few spices as evocative as za’atar, which strongly summons my days of wandering the old city of Jerusalem. Khaki-hued, za’atar is a mixture of hyssop, ground sumac, and sesame seeds. It is earthly and addictive, with a curious Mediterranean air. Nutritionists make no health claims for za’atar, but I know what it does for the soul.
Serves 8
8 very large red bell peppers
4 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons za’atar (see Note), plus more for garnish.
Note: Za’atar is a spice blend available in Middle Eastern food store. Use the green variety from Lebanon or Israel.
