I just wanted to add a warning about injera in general (Ethiopian teff bread) – while most traditional recipes for it are gluten-free, it’s very important to ask the cook every time!

When I was visiting a friend in Oakland shortly after I went gluten-free we had a hankering for Ethiopian, and I called around to find a place that had gluten-free injera. Several places used wheat flour, and one even used barley! I ended up eating at a place where their normal recipe uses wheat but they made special injera without it just for me (I had to request it several hours ahead of time though). I haven’t had a chance to ask Ethiopian places around here about their injera recipes, but will report back if I learn of any others that don’t use gluten or can remove it by special request.
