This video features clips from the final phase of our cooking lesson (Laura Litwiller, Sore Shields, and Fran Osseo-Asare), including cooling and rolling the injera, making doro wat and gomen wat, and setting the table before our guests arrive.
I might as well confess how my experiment turned out: failure. When I tried substituting teff for rye in my bread recipe, I got... a canon ball. Same thing happened when I substituted it for whole wheat flour in another bread recipe. The "loaf of bread" I got could be used to sink a pirate ship!
I think this is because teff is gluten-free. I will need to add either actual gluten, or some substitute like xantham gum.
@SailorBarsoom I know it's been over a years since you responded but Mesob Restaurant has an online recipe that calls for barley flour, wheat flour, teff and self rising flour mesobrestaurant.blogspot.com. My bf who is Oromo, is convinced that I don't have to use all of those flours to make injera though. Good luck with your cooking!
Queen of Sheba was the first Ethiopian food I ever ate. I might have to go back there again some day too.
I found a little store that sells teff flour, spice blends, and so on. I've made some injera, but it isn't at all like what you get at the restaurant. I'll try again, though. I'm also going to see if I can substitute it for some of the rye flour in a bread recipe.
