Sumac sauce has a mixture of flavors such as sweet, sweet-sour and sour. You can use it in your salads or as sauce for olives.

Sumac leaves are characteristically arranged in spirals and are usually compound, though some species have simple leaves. The minute flowers have five petals and are borne in dense panicles or spikes. The fruits are red drupes and also are borne in dense upright clusters. All sumacs have a milky or resinous sap. Sumacs grow in subtropical and temperate regions throughout the world, especially in East Asia, Africa and North America. Sumacs are shrubs and small trees that can reach a height of 1–10 m (3.3–32.8 ft). The leaves are spirally arranged; they are usually pinnately compound, though some species have trifoliate or simple leaves. Sumacs propagate both by seed (spread by birds and other animals through their droppings), and by new shoots from rhizomes, forming large clonal colonies. The word 'sumac' traces its etymology from Old French sumac, from Mediaeval Latin sumach, from Arabic summaq, from Syriac summaq meaning "red".
