The Middle Eastern spice has a nice, smoky, nutty, and slightly salty flavor with a crunchy texture. It’s completely addictive, healthy, and incredibly flavorful.
It’s a great low-sodium seasoning that’s simple to make at home. I go through jars of this stuff— I love it that much.
There are a lot of versions of this spicy nut mix—some are spicier, others sweeter. Just about every mixture variation includes nuts (most often hazelnuts, but others can be used alone or in combination), sesame seeds, coriander and cumin.
It’s fun to create combinations with different types of sprouted nuts and seeds. I love adding more sesame seeds, depending on my taste preference for the week.
In the Middle East, dukkah is usually eaten with flatbread, but it can be eaten with veggies, on its own, or sprinkled on pasta.
Additional ideas:
~ Fold into your favorite hummus or dip.
~ Toss your favorite veggies (or protein) in it with some oil and roast/bake until crispy.
– Stir it into your grains.
~ Sprinkle it on bread and bake – or use it as a dip with olive oil.
