Injera is a traditional Ethiopian flatbread made from teff flour, a nutrient-rich whole grain native to the region. Known for its unique spongy texture and tangy flavor, it serves as both a staple food and a utensil in Ethiopian cuisine, commonly paired with flavorful stews and vegetables. Teff, the primary ingredient, is naturally gluten-free and packed with fiber, protein, and essential minerals like iron, calcium, and magnesium. Injera is fermented during its preparation, which enhances its digestibility and beneficial gut health properties. While injera provides several nutritional benefits, its caloric content can increase depending on serving size and the rich dishes accompanying it. Traditionally cooked on a large skillet, injera showcases Ethiopia's culinary heritage while offering a wholesome option suitable for various diets.
