Sumac is a tart, lemony spice made from the dried and ground berries of Rhus species and is widely used in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines to add bright acidity to salads, marinades and grilled dishes. It’s aromatic and used like a finishing spice or dry rub to bring citrus-like tang without liquid lemon. Nutritionally, Sumac is unusually high in fiber with 37g per 100g and also contributes vitamin C, vitamin K and manganese, along with polyphenols that give it antioxidant character. Because it’s used in small amounts as a seasoning, it adds flavor and micronutrients without many calories. From a health perspective, sumac is considered a nutritious spice choice—its fiber and antioxidant content are beneficial, and it’s a good alternative to adding extra salt or heavy sauces when you want brightness and flavor.
