Hazzah! Za'atar is Here!

Posted by Sideways Kitchen | 3-4 min. read

It’s tangy. It’s nutty. It’s bold. It’s Sideways. We’re spicing up the kitchen once again, Chef-style—with a Middle Eastern classic that just got the Sideways Kitchen salt-free makeover. Introducing our newest blend: Za’atar Seasoning Blend.

If you haven’t met her yet, allow us to introduce her properly: She’s earthy, aromatic, and layered with sumac tang, toasted sesame nuttiness, and the warmth of thyme and oregano. She’s the kind of seasoning that brings flatbreads to life, transforms yogurt into magic, and makes roasted veggies taste like they were blessed by the seasoning gods themselves.

Why Za’atar, Why Now?

Everyone is looking for different flavors to their foods—you’ve been asking for bold, global flavors without the salt. And we listened.

This blend is more than a seasoning—it’s a flavor passport. Created for families juggling wellness goals, picky eaters, our Za’atar is salt-free, deeply layered, and totally versatile. Whether you’re sprinkling it on avocado toast, tossing it with roasted cauliflower, or stirring it into olive oil for a quick dip—Za’atar says, “let’s make this interesting.”

The Sideways Twist

At Sideways Kitchen, we don’t just make seasonings—we craft flavor moments out of chaos. (Remember how Sideways Kitchen got its name? A little boy with toy cars and trains zipping across the kitchen floor while his mom turned the mess into magic.)

This Za’atar blend was born on one of those beautifully chaotic days—with a toddler tugging at our apron, a dinner that needed saving, and a craving for something different. We sprinkled it, tasted it, and said out loud: “This one’s staying.”
