Injera
Injera (, ; ; ) is a sour fermented pancake-like flatbread with a slightly spongy texture, traditionally made of teff flour. In Ethiopia and Eritrea, injera is a staple. Injera is central to the dining process in Amhara community, like bread or rice elsewhere and is usually stored in the mesob. Ingredients Traditionally, injera is made with just two ingredients: teff flour and water. Teff flour is ground from the grains of ''Eragrostis tef'', also known as teff, a cereal crop from the Ethiopian Highlands. Teff production is limited to certain middle elevations with adequate rainfall and is a low-yield crop, so it is relatively expensive for the average farming household. Many farmers in the Ethiopian highlands grow their own subsistence grains, so wheat, barley, corn, or rice flour are sometimes used to replace the teff content. Teff seeds are graded according to color, used to make different kinds of injera: ''nech'' (white), ''key'' or ''quey'' (red), and ''sergegna ...
