Zhug

 

Traditionally made into a pesto as a condiment with falafel, Zhug is a spicy, delicious and versatile blend for those who like a spicy hot Middle Eastern-inspired kick!

Our Zhug is excellent slathered on hamburgers, grilled meats, roasted vegetables and potatoes. Try it in hummus, as a soup garnish, or on sandwiches, tacos, and burritos.

As with all our blends, it’s made fresh every couple of months in small batches and dated to ensure best flavor.
