Episode 22 - Sumac

On this episode of The Spicecast, Reuben is joined by special guest Sofia to talk about sumac, a tangy and delicious spice with many applications, culinary and otherwise. The show discusses what sumac is, then dives into culinary uses, pauses for a brief sumac tasting, then goes into the history of sumac and its medicinal uses. The final segment focuses on sumac in pop culture. Correction: At 19:40, Reuben incorrectly identifies The Green Zone as a Palestinian bar. It is actually a Middle Eastern bar.
