Sumac Pure Dry Spice

Richly coloured, boldly tart and unmistakably Lebanese, sumac is the spice that makes a fattoush sing, a grilled kebab unforgettable and a simple side dish into flavourful feast.

Ground from sun-ripened sumac berries, this tangy, almost fruity spice has been a cornerstone of Middle Eastern cooking for centuries. It imparts a lemony zest without adding citrus, the sharpness of a good vinegar without acidity, giving you a finishing touch that brightens dishes and makes flavours feel complete.

Sumac & Caramelised Onion Chicken

Few aromas are as inviting as chicken roasting with sweet onions, warm spices and tangy sumac. A beloved combination found throughout the Levant, this dish celebrates the beauty of simple ingredients transformed through time and care. The onions soften and caramelise, the sumac lends its distinctive brightness, and the chicken becomes deeply golden and succulent. Finished with toasted pine nuts and served alongside warm bread and creamy labneh, it is a meal that embodies generosity, comfort and the joy of gathering around the table.

Prep 20 mins
Cook 45–50 mins
Serves 4
Ingredients
  • 1kg Chicken Thighs, bone in, skin on.
  • 2 tbsp Eid Pantry Lebanese Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
  • 1 tsp Ground Cumin & 1/2 tsp Allspice.
  • Sea Salt & Cracked Black Pepper.
  • 4 Large Red Onions, halved and thinly sliced into half-moons.
  • 1/2 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil (additional for onions)
  • 3 tbsp Eid Pantry Ground Sumac
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon.
  • 2 tbsp Pine Nuts, toasted.
  • 2 Large Lebanese Flatbreads.
  • Handful of Fresh Flat-Leaf Parsley
  • Greek Yogurt or Labneh to serve on the side.
    1. Preheat your oven to 200°C. Pat the chicken dry to ensure the skin crisps. Toss the thighs with 2 tbsp olive oil, cumin, allspice, salt, and pepper.
    2. Arrange on a baking tray and roast for 35–40 minutes until the skin is glass-crisp and the meat is tender.
    3. While the chicken roasts, heat the 1/2 cup of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat.
    4. Add the sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Sauté slowly for 15–20 minutes until they are soft and translucent (not browned).
    5. Stir in the sumac and cinnamon. The onions will immediately turn a stunning, deep purple.
    6. Cook for another 2 minutes to let the spices bloom in the oil. Remove from heat and stir in half of the toasted pine nuts.
    7. Place the flatbreads on a large platter or baking sheet. Spoon the warm, sumac-stained onions and their fragrant oil over the bread, spreading them to the edges.
    8. Place the roasted chicken thighs directly on top of the onions.
    9. Return the whole platter to the oven for 5 minutes. This allows the bread to soak up the spiced juices and the edges of the flatbread to become slightly crisp.
