Stock Up
2 × 750 ml (25.4 fl oz) Olive Oil + 2 × 90 ml (3 oz) Zaatar | Cold-pressed in steel drums
Olive oil and zaatar run like water in a Palestinian kitchen. Breakfast is a bowl of each, set on the table next to bread, and the bread keeps going back into both. Two of each is what a household actually goes through.
Shareef Khateeb tends the Koroneiki groves in the Galilee hills around Mi'ilya. The oil is bold, structured, and peppery: the kind that holds up to bread, salads, and everything you finish with it. The zaatar is hand-blended in small batches, the way it's been done for generations. Two bottles, two jars, the value pack of the Palestinian breakfast.
Includes:
– 2 × Mi'ilya Koroneiki Cold Pressed 750 ml (25.4 fl oz) – Bold, structured, peppery
– 2 × Palestinian Zaatar Mixture 90 ml (3 oz) – Hand-blended, small batch
Store in a cool, dry place, shielded from direct sunlight or heat.
Some pantry items don't last long in a Palestinian kitchen. Olive oil and zaatar are at the top of that list. The bowls get refilled every breakfast. The bottles drain through the week.
Stock Up brings two of each, so the next refill isn't on your mind. Mi'ilya Koroneiki pressed by Shareef Khateeb in the Galilee, bold enough for everyday cooking and bright enough for the morning bread. Zaatar hand-blended in small batches, ready for whatever wants it.
Two staples, doubled. The kitchen that's never short.
