Frequently Asked Questions About Zaatar chips
What are Zaatar chips?
Zaatar chips are potato chips seasoned with za’atar, a Middle Eastern herb-and-spice blend. The blend often includes thyme or related herbs, sumac and sesame, though its exact ingredients vary by recipe and product.
What do Zaatar chips taste like?
Zaatar chips taste salty, crunchy and herbaceous, with a tangy note from sumac in many blends. Sesame can add a toasty flavor, while the strength of the seasoning varies between products.
How do you make Zaatar chips at home?
To make Zaatar chips at home, slice potatoes thinly, coat them lightly with oil and bake or air-fry until crisp. Sprinkle on za’atar afterward so the herbs are less likely to scorch.
Are Zaatar chips spicy?
Zaatar chips are usually savory and tangy rather than hot. They will taste spicy only if the seasoning blend includes chili or another hot pepper.
What is za’atar seasoning on Zaatar chips made of?
The za’atar on Zaatar chips is an herb-and-spice blend that commonly contains thyme or similar herbs, sumac and sesame. Recipes differ by region, so the flavor and ingredients are not identical in every blend.
How are Zaatar chips different from regular potato chips?
Zaatar chips have the same familiar crisp potato base as many regular chips, but their seasoning adds an herbal, tangy flavor. The exact taste depends on the za’atar blend rather than on a different kind of potato.
Are Zaatar chips good for you?
Zaatar chips are a salty, energy-dense snack, and the seasoning does not make them a substitute for a balanced meal. For a lighter option, make potato slices at home with less oil and salt.
What can you eat with Zaatar chips?
Zaatar chips work on their own or with a yogurt-based dip. Their savory, herbal flavor also pairs well with sandwiches and mezze; choose a dip that does not make the snack overly salty.
How should you store Zaatar chips after opening?
After opening, keep Zaatar chips in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Limiting exposure to air and moisture helps preserve their crunch and keeps the seasoning from picking up unwanted odors.
Do Zaatar chips go stale?
Yes, Zaatar chips lose their crunch when exposed to air and moisture. Seal the opened bag tightly or transfer the chips to an airtight container to slow staling.

What is Zaatar chips?
Zaatar chips are crisp potato chips seasoned with za’atar, an herb-and-spice blend associated with Levantine cooking. Their savoury, salty crunch is balanced by the seasoning’s herbal aroma and gently tangy character, making them a snack with a distinctly eastern Mediterranean flavour.
In the Levant they may be enjoyed on their own or alongside sandwiches and dips; elsewhere, they work well as a casual snack to share. They are mainly a potato-and-oil snack, so they are energy-dense: 100 g provides 536 calories. For a lighter snack, keep to a small portion and pair it with fresh vegetables or a simple yoghurt dip.
