Injera is a traditional Ethiopian flatbread made primarily from teff flour, a naturally gluten-free grain rich in nutrients. Originating from the Horn of Africa, injera is a staple in Ethiopian and Eritrean cuisine, serving as both a plate and utensil for stews, vegetables, and meats. Teff flour is packed with iron, calcium, fiber, and protein, making injera a nutritious choice. It is fermented, giving it a slightly tangy flavor and soft, spongy texture ideal for soaking up sauces. Injera is low in fat, and rich in complex carbohydrates, providing sustained energy. However, its healthiness can depend on portions and accompanying dishes, such as heavier meats or creamy sauces. As a whole-grain option, injera is an excellent addition to a balanced diet, particularly for those seeking gluten-free alternatives.
