You can sprinkle it on soft cheese or labneh, mix it with olive oil for a delicious dip, or enhance the flavors of poultry and salads.

- Q: Why is hyssop important in Zaatar? A: Hyssop is essential in Zaatar as it is the main ingredient that defines the blend.

Always check the ingredient list to ensure it contains hyssop and sumac for the best quality.
