Teff has been a staple of Ethiopian and other East African cuisines for thousands of years. Its great flavor, versatility, and impressive nutritional profile have made this tiny grain highly popular around the world.
Health and Nutrition:
Teff is a whole grain high in fiber, iron, and protein. It contains all 8 essential amino acids, meaning its protein is high quality. Naturally gluten free, teff is also rich in calcium, containing higher levels of this important nutrient than any other grain.
Ivory Teff Flour Use:
Teff is used to make the traditional bread, injera: a flat, pancake-like, fermented bread that complements their exotic spices.
Teff grain can be eaten alone as a hot cereal or polenta.
Cook teff with other grains and vegetables for delicious pilafs or stuffings, or add to stews.
