    How to Make Middle Eastern Spicy Herb Condiment Schug

    1. Process Herbs and Spices

    Place the jalapeño peppers, cilantro, parsley, garlic cloves, salt, ground coriander, ground cumin, ground cardamom, and ground ginger into a food processor. Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice. Pulse the mixture until it forms a coarse paste.

    2. Incorporate Oil

    Transfer the paste into a bowl or jar. Gradually pour in the neutral oil, stirring the mixture until the oil is well incorporated.

    3. Storage

    Store the schug in the refrigerator, covered with a thin layer of oil on top to preserve its flavors and prevent spoilage. It will remain fresh for up to a week.
