Reviews

I love the tang and

"I love the tang and the earthiness this herb adds to my dishes when I use it. Since I live alone, it takes me a while to use eye supply of herbs, however, I noticed that the jar currently had was outdated, and I like it too much not to have a fresh star in the pantry."

I'm having a hard time

"I'm having a hard time rating this product. I put it in my pasta and being that my mother was Italian this spice didn't sit well with pasta. I always use sumac in making dips, so I could not figure out why my taste buds were not found of this spice. I think I need to use in another dinner item."
