Somaq / Sumac is often used as a souring agent in Lebanese, Arabian and Turkish cuisine, instead of the more usual lemon, tamarind or vinegar found in dishes from other regions.

It can be rubbed on to fish and chicken, or on to kebabs before grilling.

A mixture of yogurt and sumac is often served with kebabs and a sprinkle to season salad.

Try using it in salads instead of lemon juice or to season grilled meat and fish. It's also delicious sprinkled over hummus.
