  • About

This side dish uses the tiny teff grains ground into a flour (for more information). It is increasingly available in stores. The flavor will be slightly nutty—not strange.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup teff flour
  • Kosher salt

Method

Bring 1½ cups water to a boil in a small saucepan. Whisk the teff flour into ½ cup cold water, then whisk the mixture into the boiling water until well combined. Reduce the heat to simmer and cook for 3 to 4 m
