Sumac (pronounced SOO-mak) comes from the Arabic “summaq,” which means “dark red.” is the fruit of a shrub (Rhus coriaria) that grows throughout the Middle East and the Mediterranean. And it might surprise you to learn that sumac is actually a member of the cashew family, anacardiaceae. As far back as 2,000 years ago, sumac was noted for its healthful properties, namely as a diuretic and anti-flatulent by the romans. * These berries vary in colour from brick red to dark purple, depending on where the shrub is grown. Berries are harvested just before they ripen, then left in the sun to dry, then grounded into powder. The Grounded powder is then used as a spice rubs, marinades and dressings, and is also served as a condiment.
The flavor of sumac is quite surprising as the deep red spice is reminiscent of fresh lemon juice. This sweet but sour taste is followed by an astringent powerful punch Sumac goes well with chicken, fish and seafood, lamb, eggplant, chickpeas and lentils. For a delicious marinade or dressing, mix it with yoghurt and other herbs and spices such as chilli, coriander, cumin, paprika and parsley.
