AUTHENTIC
ETHIOPIAN FOOD Made With Love!
Injera Basket (ααΆα₯) β
is a Seattle based pre-cooked and packed Ethiopian Cuisine producing authentic food, teff injera & other services using traditional cooking techniques.
Injera, the heart of Ethiopian cuisine, is a unique, spongy flatbread made from teff, a supergrain thatβs gluten-free and rich in nutrients like iron and calcium. It doubles as both bread and utensil, used to scoop up flavorful stews and vegetables. The secret to its tangy taste lies in fermentation, which gives injera its signature flavor. Ethiopian meals are often served family-style on a large piece of injera, symbolizing community and togetherness. Bold spices like berbere bring the dishes to life, and meals often end with a traditional coffee ceremonyβfitting, since Ethiopia is the birthplace of coffee!
