Burlap & Barrel’s spectacular Cured Sumac grows wild around Gaziantep, Turkey, where instead of being dried, it’s chopped & packed in salt to preserve it. It has a bright, sour, salty & slightly fermented flavor, & is one of their most popular spices among professional chefs & home cooks alike. Cured Sumac is a classic Middle Eastern finishing spice. Swap it for lemon juice in any recipe or use it to add character & brightness to salads, fish, meat or dips. It also makes a perfect topping for anything from hummus to salad to roasted veggies or meat to scrambled eggs.
