Red Sumac
The fruits of sumac are particularly popular in North America. Sumac is used as a spice for its great tart taste and health benefits. It is cultivated in many parts of the world, particularly the Middle East, North America, and Africa. The red, green, or creamy plants dry over time and become dark red or reddish purple. Sumac is used in Turkish, Arabic, and Middle Eastern cuisine. Its Turkish taste is a great addition to hot or cold Sharbat and tea.
