A Journey Through Mediterranean Spices

The Spice Route to Mediterranean Flavor

Mediterranean cuisine is renowned for its vibrant use of spices and herbs. Each spice tells a story of trade routes, cultural exchange, and culinary innovation.

Essential Mediterranean Spices

  • Sumac: This tangy, lemony spice adds brightness to grilled meats and salads.
  • Za'atar: A blend of thyme, sesame seeds, and sumac, perfect for breads and dips.
  • Cumin: Earthy and warm, essential for many Mediterranean dishes.
  • Paprika: Adds color and mild heat to grilled meats and stews.
  • Oregano: The quintessential Mediterranean herb, especially Greek oregano.

How We Use Spices at Greens N Grills

Our chefs carefully select and blend spices to create authentic Mediterranean flavors. We source the highest quality spices and grind them fresh to ensure maximum flavor and aroma.

Spice Storage Tips

Store your spices in a cool, dark place in airtight containers. Whole spices last longer than ground spices, so consider grinding them as needed for the freshest flavor.
