Injera is a traditional Ethiopian flatbread known for its distinctive spongy texture and slightly tangy flavor. Made primarily from teff flour, a nutrient-dense grain native to Ethiopia, injera is naturally gluten-free and rich in fiber, iron, and protein. The batter undergoes fermentation, which enhances its digestibility and contributes to its unique taste. Injera serves as both bread and a utensil in Ethiopian cuisine, commonly used to scoop up flavorful stews and dishes. Its high nutritional value, thanks to teff’s abundance of vitamins and minerals, makes it a healthy choice for many. However, portions should be mindful of its carbohydrate content, which can be significant depending on the serving size. A staple of Ethiopian and Eritrean diets, injera embodies cultural heritage while offering health benefits that make it a versatile addition to meals worldwide.
