Sumac Berries Blend by Seasoned Pioneers 33g

Crushed sumac berries are intensely fruity with tart notes. The striking red berries grow wild in the Mediterranean, where they are delicately handpicked off the shrubs and dried in the sun. Just like salt and pepper, sumac is a staple throughout the Middle East to season dishes.

Crushed sumac berries are a focal point in Turkish, Lebanese and Arabian cuisine where they are used to add a citrus flavour to chicken, salads, fish, vegetables, rice and eggs. The berries are also a key ingredient in the spice blend Zahtar. Try sprinkling over hummus or use in a marinade. We dare you to use them like the Romans used to – in place of lemon!

About the Producer
We are a small team of six, aka the Super Spicy Six! Our humble headquarters are located on the paradise peninsula known as The Wirral, where we make all our products. The story began in 1999, practically the Stone Age. Mark Steene founded the company after an interest in seasonings was sparked while travelling worldwide: 'During my travels I enjoyed a multitude of local cuisine. On my return I was astonished that I could not recreate these dishes using the seasonings and blends on offer in the UK. I made it my goal to inspire others by offering premium, authentic products'.

Influential food writers have recognised us as leading experts in the culinary industry. For example, Delia Smith, Rick Stein and Nigella Lawson have mentioned us organically in their cookbooks and articles.
