Cedar's Reserve Hommus Lebanese Za'atar & Tahini Dip
What it is
This is a flavorful blend of creamy hommus infused with the distinctive taste of za'atar and tahini. Za'atar is a traditional Middle Eastern spice blend often featuring thyme, oregano, and sumac, while tahini is a paste made from ground sesame seeds. Together, they create a rich, aromatic, and slightly tangy profile that enhances the smooth texture of the hommus.
