Description

Roasted and ground cardamom, coriander, and cumin seeds, with garlic powder. Zhug’s heat and green colour come from fresh green chillies — the real thing is a fresh herb paste, so pound this blend with fresh green chillies, a big bunch of fresh coriander and parsley, olive oil, and lemon juice to get there. Featured in Episode 12. Dry blend, shelf-stable — adapted from a fresh herb paste with a naturally short shelf life; this version is the dry spice base only, missing the fresh green chillies, coriander, parsley, and lemon that give zhug its actual character.

Zhug — Israel’s fiery green herb condiment. Exact quantities.

  • 1 tsp each cardamom, coriander and cumin seeds, roasted and ground
  • 2 green chillies, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, chopped
  • A large bunch each of coriander and flat-leaf parsley, chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, pepper, juice of half a lemon

Pound the toasted spices with the chilli and garlic, then work in the herbs, oil and lemon to a rough green paste. If using the dry blend, add the fresh chilli, herbs and lemon when you make it up.
