I know, everyone kind of freaks out about cheesecake. I’m no different. I’ve been making a really delicious cheesecake for years. The steps are perfect and everything happens almost automatically, until one day I had the bizarre idea of mixing some za’atar into the buttery biscuit base. I tried it and that’s when my experimental mood really got going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cheesecake with Za’atar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Talk about freaking out: I love contrasts in food! Everyone probably knows salted caramel and I’m really into it. So why shouldn’t za’atar work as well? Let’s recall the ingredients of za’atar. It’s mostly thyme. Then there’s sesame seeds, sumac and a pinch of salt. Mixed with butter and crumbled butter biscuits, it makes an absolutely heavenly base for a really delicious cheesecake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s kind of super weird when you take a piece and first have the very familiar taste of cheesecake in your mouth and then the other flavours slowly make themselves known. First cheesecake, then thyme with sesame seeds and finally a delicate hint of salt. Perfect!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sumac and the berries<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Okay, so we have the base. But you can also garnish cheesecake so beautifully with all kinds of wonderful things. How about something fruity to go with the sweet cake? A berry compote in itself brings a super fruity note and a fresh acidity. But boost it with some sumac and rose water. It’s a real party in the mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In combination with chopped pistachios and of course the delicious cheesecake, there is really only one thing left to do: Happy Ausrasting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

P.S.: If you ever have guests over who are not very keen on experimenting – the cheesecake actually looks quite harmless on the outside \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n\n\n\n
