Quick Toasts with Cheese and Za'atar

Empty fridge? No problem! To make quick toasts with cheese and aromatic za’atar, you only need a few ingredients that most of us have at home.

Spoiled by the sun, vacation vibes, and long days, we want to spend as much time outdoors as possible, enjoying the weather and relaxing. That’s why in summer, we opt for quick meals and uncomplicated snacks.

Don’t worry—these toasts will be delicious at any time of the year. After all, it’s not just in summer that we can be culinary couch potatoes!

INGREDIENTS

4 slices of good quality bread
4 slices of cheese
2-3 tablespoons of za’atar Jasmeen
2 teaspoons of butter (or mayonnaise)

Preparation:

On the bread, we place cheese, sprinkle everything with za’atar, and then cover it with another slice of cheese and bread. We spread butter (or mayonnaise) on both sides of the bread and toast it until golden brown. Serve with seasonal vegetables. The toasts can also be spread with harissa for extra flavor.

Enjoy!

What is za'atar?

The Middle East is renowned for its diverse spice blends, but none are surrounded by as much mystery as za’atar. For centuries, the recipe for this spice blend was one of the most closely guarded secrets of many families, although its distinctive flavor has been known since ancient times.

The za’atar herb blend from Jasmeen contains thyme, ground sumac, and roasted sesame seeds, which are key to achieving its unique, slightly tangy flavor.

Thanks to its balanced and proven combination of sesame, thyme, and spices, za’atar is perfect for meats and fish, for example, as a marinade addition. This spice transforms and enhances the flavor of everyday ingredients, pairing wonderfully with all vegetables. It is also ideal for breakfast dishes, going well with hummus, labneh, and bread.
