Teff is the chief ingredient in the Ethiopian and Eritrean engera. What is engera, you may ask. It is a flat sour-like fermented pancake that is used with “wot”, a stew made with spices, meats, lentils, beans and split peas. Teff is a small grain, round in shape, khaki-colored and looks like millet. Teff is so small, the smallest in the world actually, it’s always nowhere to be found after harvesting and threshing process.
