How to Prepare Homemade Za’atar [Vegan]

Preferably use fresh herbs that you dried yourself.
You can make the za’atar in a spice grinder, a small food processor, or in a mortar and pestle.
Add the ingredients to the processor and pulse a few times until combined.
If you use mortar and pestle add the ingredients one by one, crushing each before adding the next.
Keep refrigerated in a sealed jar or in the freezer.
