Za’atar 101 with Chef Fadi Kattan

In celebration of Za’atar Day on Sept. 23, we asked our friend Chef Fadi Kattan to tell us about the many different ways za’atar can be enjoyed. A staple in Palestinian kitchens, Chef tells us some of the ways he incorporates za’atar in his dishes. Happy Za’atar Day!
