Teff and Injera

12 July 2021

Apart from being gluten-free, teff is known as a very healthy grain. It is rich in minerals (such as iron and calcium) and vitamins (such as B1, B3, B6 and B9) as well as protein, carbohydrates and fiber. The carbohydrates in teff are complex, slow-processed carbohydrates, meaning they get broken down by the body at a slower rate than other grains so you feel full for longer.

Ethiopians primarily use teff to make their national dish known as “injera”. Injera is a type of sourdough-risen flatbread which looks similar to a pancake with a unique sponge-like texture. Traditionally, it is eaten with a range of different toppings such as stews, salads or sauces. Now that cultures all over the world are learning about this traditional Ethiopian and Eritrean meal, the possibilities are practically endless.
