Hot Tips

Ethiopian Injera

Injera, the Ethiopian pancake-style bread is traditionally made with teff (a native wheat). Teff flour may be available at good health food stores, however if you can’t find it, substitute buckwheat, which does not taste exactly like injera but is similar in texture and colour.

Glossary

Cayenne Pepper

A fiery hot red chilli pepper, sometimes used as a seasoning or flavouring.
