Summer bread – The zaatar and olives bread

Maison Kayser accompanies you throughout the summer with its olives and zaatar bread.

In July and August, our bakers highlight two symbols of the Mediterranean basin.

First of all, the olive: cultivated in every country bordering the Mediterranean Sea, the fruit of the olive tree is the emblem of the region.

As for zaatar, it is a traditional blend of spices and aromatic plants from the Middle East. One of the pillars of Middle Eastern cuisine in the broad sense. The term zaatar means thyme in Arabic. It will therefore not be surprising to find that the eponymous mixture uses it in good quantities. Its recipe varies depending on the region, but for the majority, it is based on thyme, sesame and sumac. Our zaatar contains only these three ingredients, including white sesame.

A tasty pairing that goes perfectly with a seasonal salad
