Simply put, it’s an all around earthy and olive green combination of spices, that you could use literally on anything (while in Israel we even tried it on pizza).
But ever since I tried my friend Ari Lang’s out of this world crispy pan seared salmon with Israeli couscous, I’ve been obsessed with how well salmon and couscous go together.
To go with The Roasted Salmon with Za’atar and Sumac, I’ve simply cooked it with a bit of olive oil, garlic, harissa and lemon juice.
To make the sauce, in a medium bowl, mix the yogurt with the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, salt, Za'atar and chili, if using.
