Love this but only really have a couple of Ottolenghi recipes that use it and they’re not really faves to make. Do you have some good staples for it?
Oh and ground and powder black pepper! Have cut out salt in all my cooking. I’m not a very good cook but imo it still tastes good with things like lemon or pepper or soy sauce or hot sauce
Oh i forgot sumac too! Zatar is really nice hummus or bread!

I used to make these on the regular and loved them - ridiculously quick and easy and a decent success rate:
The book it’s from (Sirocco) is generally a great recipe book to have on hand as well.
