The tiny size of a teff seed belies its substantial nutritional power. Many of Ethiopia’s famed distance runners credit teff for their endurance, and it’s long been an important element in the traditional diets on the Horn of Africa, where it’s most commonly ground into flour and served as injera, the region’s customary flatbread. With the widespread interest in the so-called “ancient grains,” defined as unaltered through selective breeding or other genetic modifications, teff is gaining fans in the rest of the world too.

What Does It Taste Like?

Similar to most grains, teff is often described as nutty in flavor. The Teff Company, an Idaho grower, describes it more specifically as similar to hazelnuts, with a hint of chocolate in the darker variety.
