Zucchini Fritters with Herbed Yogurt (Sumac)

A classic seasoning in Middle Eastern and North African cooking, sumac lends a bright, fruity flavor to these zucchini fritters and the accompanying yogurt dipping sauce. The spice, made from the ground berrylike fruits of the sumac bush, has natural hints of tangy citrus and savory salt.
