Unexpected but delicious use of Za’atar
Hard to believe it’s already fall here in Ohio. Time flies by quickly when you are occupied in work you enjoy. This summer we sold our spice mixes in two farmer’s markets, Delaware and Powell. Thank you to our repeat and new customers. Many bought both Garam Masala and Za’atar and had only good things […]
Stuffed Okra
