32 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 Loaves Middle Eastern or Arab or pocket bread
4 tablespoons Olive oil
2 tablespoons Sesame seeds
2 tablespoons Zaartar
teaspoon Salt

Directions

From: The Frugal Gourmet by Jeff Smith Zaartar, a blend of herbs, is very popular with those in the Middle East.

It is made up of thyme, sesame seeds or chick-peas, and sumac bark. You can buy this mixture in any Middle Easter grocery or delicatessen. You can use it for many dishes.

Cut each loaf of bread into 8 wedges. Separate the wedges so that each loaf offers 16 wedges.

Mix the remaining ingredients together to form a paste. Brush the coarse side of each of the wedges with a bit of the paste. Place on a cookie sheet and broil until lightly browned on top. Watch these carefully.

Makes 32 pieces.
