In order to bring you a little closer to Ethiopia and its culture, we have put together a few typical Ethiopian recipes. What rice is in Asia is Injera in Ethiopia and Eritrea. The sour, spongy dough is the basis for almost every dish. Injera is made from Teff, a grass that comes from Ethiopia. Teff is considered very nutritious and is probably healthier than cereals such as our rye, wheat, etc. and gluten-free among others.

Injera is also a dining tool and actually a plate. The curries are on Injera and you use a piece of Injeera to pick up the sauce. If possible, you do not touch the sauce directly (heavier than you thought).
