Not authentic and very pricey, but still tasty
Honestly, this spice blend is not really anything I would consider za’atar, plus the price is steep for a mediocre product. If you want a Mediterranean-ish spice blend that evokes za’atar, this does taste decent on its own. But you can get much more authentic za’atar for a way cheaper price on Amazon. Right off the bat, this za’atar blend is composed of whole dried herbs and spices, rather than the typical ground up powdery herbs (see photo of comparison). This is not necessarily a bad thing, but it does make this whole-leaf za’atar impractical for certain applications such as smearing onto pitas. The smell coming from the spice blend is predominantly cumin – odd choice for za’atar – and not very fragrant. Also, this blend does not include sumac (not all za’atar does, though). Unusual composition aside, I decided to use this spice blend to blacken some salmon. It was very tasty on the salmon: a great accent to the fish flavor without overpowering it. Distinct flavors of the herbs and spices come through. However, I would not peg the flavor as “za’atar”, and instead more generically Mediterranean/Middle Eastern. Last, I compared price: you can get a much more authentic za’atar on Amazon for less than half the price of this McCormick blend. Considering the high price, I definitely do not think this blend is worth it – you aren’t getting an authentic za’atar blend, and there are significantly cheaper options.
