Sumak

Sumak (Premium Persian Sumac Powder)

Elevate your grilled dishes with the bright, tangy flavor of premium Sumak. Harvested from the wild berries of the sumac bush and ground into a coarse, deep burgundy powder, this essential Persian spice delivers a vibrant fruity tartness that perfectly mimics the refreshing acidity of fresh lemon juice. It is most famously used as a table condiment, generously sprinkled over hot Chelo Kabab (grilled minced meat or chicken skewers served with saffron rice) to cut through the richness of the meat and balance the flavors beautifully. It also makes a fantastic addition to fresh salads like Salad Shirazi, marinades, and yogurt-based dips.
