Kitfo
''Kitfo'' ( am, ክትፎ, ), is an Ethiopian traditional dish which originated among the Gurage people. It consists of minced raw beef, marinated in '' mitmita'' (a chili powder-based spice blend) and '' niter kibbeh'' (a clarified butter infused with herbs and spices). The word comes from the Ethio-Semitic root k-t-f, meaning "to chop finely; mince." ''Kitfo'' cooked lightly rare is known as ''kitfo leb leb''.Mesfin, D.J. ''Exotic Ethiopian Cooking'', Falls Church, Virginia: Ethiopian Cookbooks Enterprises, 2006, pp.124, 129. ''Kitfo'' is often served alongside—sometimes mixed with—a mild cheese called ''ayibe'' or cooked greens known as ''gomen''. In many parts of Ethiopia, ''kitfo'' is served with ''injera'', a spongy, absorbent sourdough crepe-style bread made from fermented teff flour, although in traditional Gurage cuisine, one would use '' kocho'', a thick flatbread made from the ''ensete'' plant. An ''ensete'' leaf may be used as a garnish. Though not consi ...

Gored Gored
Gored gored (; ) is a raw beef dish eaten in Ethiopia and Eritrea. Whereas kitfo is minced beef marinated in spices and clarified butter, ''gored gored'' is cubed and left unmarinated. Like kitfo, it is widely popular and considered a national dish. It is often served with mitmita (a powdered seasoning mix) and awaze (a type of mustard and chilli sauce). Although the dish is sometimes compared to kitfo, gored gored is not eaten after being marinated in spices and butter. It is frequently served with injera flatbread, awaze chili sauce, and lemon wedges. Usually, the fat is left on the meat and eaten with it. Gored gored can be served as a stand-alone dish or in combination with the aforementioned ingredients, but it can also be included in a larger dinner, particularly during festive occasions and festivals.

Kocho (Ge'ez: ቆጮ, ḳōč̣ō) is a bread-like fermented food made from chopped and grated ensete pulp. The pseudo-stem of the ensete plant contains a pith that is collected, pulped, and mixed with yeast before being fermented for three months to two years. It is used as a staple in Ethiopian cuisine in place of or alongside injera. In 1975 more than one-sixth of Ethiopians depended completely or partially on kocho for a substantial part of their food.Keith SteinkrauHandbook of Indigenous Fermented Foods, Revised and Expanded 2018 p.260 2018 - Preview - More editions ...

Beef
Beef is the culinary name for meat from cattle (''Bos taurus''). In prehistoric times, humankind hunted aurochs and later domesticated them. Since that time, numerous breeds of cattle have been bred specifically for the quality or quantity of their meat. Today, beef is the third most widely consumed meat in the world, after pork and poultry. As of 2018, the United States, Brazil, and China were the largest producers of beef. Beef can be prepared in various ways; cuts are often used for steak, which can be cooked to varying degrees of doneness, while trimmings are often ground or minced, as found in most hamburgers. Beef contains protein, iron, and vitamin B12. Along with other kinds of red meat, high consumption is associated with an increased risk of colorectal cancer and coronary heart disease, especially when processed. Beef has a high environmental impact, being a primary driver of deforestation with the highest greenhouse gas emissions of any agricultural product ...

Steak Tartare
Steak tartare or tartar steak is a dish of raw ground (minced) beef. It is usually served with onions, capers, mushrooms, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and other seasonings, often presented separately, to be added to taste. It is often served on top with a raw egg yolk. It is similar to the Levantine '' kibbeh nayyeh'', the Turkish ''çiğ köfte'', the Korean ''yukhoe'' and the widely known Japanese ''sashimi''. The name tartare is sometimes generalized to other raw meat or fish dishes. In France, a less-common variant called ''tartare aller-retour'' is a mound of mostly raw ground meat lightly seared on both sides. History The Tatars and raw meat A popular caricature of Mongol warriors—called Tatars or Tartars—has them tenderizing meat under their saddles, then eating it raw. This story was popularized by the French chronicler Jean de Joinville in the 13th century, although he never actually encountered Mongols himself and used the story as a way of showing t ...

Raw Foodism
Raw foodism, also known as rawism or a raw food diet, is the dietary practice of eating only or mostly food that is uncooked and unprocessed. Depending on the philosophy, or type of lifestyle and results desired, raw food diets may include a selection of fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, eggs, fish, meat, and dairy products. The diet may also include simply processed foods, such as various types of sprouted seeds, cheese, and fermented foods such as yogurts, kefir, kombucha, or sauerkraut, but generally not foods that have been pasteurized, homogenized, or produced with the use of synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, solvents, and food additives. The British Dietetic Association has described raw foodism as a fad diet."Fad diets"
