I have friends in the Middle East who say za'atar is a common spice blend used in their #cooking. But I only learned about it recently. If you are on a low-salt or no-salt diet, they say za'atar is an excellent salt substitute. It is said that evidence of flatbreads has been found at ancient sites in Mesopotamia, ancient Egypt, and the Indus civilization. Also there are historical records that indicate Persian soldiers baked a flatbread on their shields and covered it cheese and dates. You many be able to buy this blend at your local grocery store (or via Amazon). But you can also. make your own. Here is a recipe.
