Bob's Red Mill Teff Flour, 20oz (Pack of 4) - Non GMO, Whole Grain, Vegan, Kosher

Tastes fresh and like teff. What more can we say? Lots of iron in this grain.

High quality teff flower, I highly recommend

Teff tastes fabulous and is very high protein. It grows in both dry and overly wet conditions, making it an ecological seed to produce. It grows best in--surprise--Ethiopia, where teff is ground into flour and used to make injera. When I made injera several years ago it was a long process of letting the thin dough sour by adding yeast and keeping it out overnight. This Teff Flour from one of my favorite companies in the world, Bob's Red Mill, which is an employee-owned company, has a recipe for injera that's almost instant. I can't wait. Teff tastes mildly nutty and is a uniquely different flavor in a high-fiber grain. The only downside is that teff is lower in thiamine than many other grains, but anything said to be perfect is hyped. This is a superb product from an equally superb company. I was not paid in goods nor money to write this. Just an old woman who loves Ethiopian food and delighted with immigrants from that country and area.

recipe called for it.

After eating injera bread my wife made from this flour, I realized we were consuming cheap, poor quality food from the other sellers. This is the true Teff flour you can ever enjoy with your zigni xebhi/tsebhi (Eritrean/Ethiopian traditional stew). I hope I will find this product every I need it. I don't mind the price, it is its rareness. It is not easy to find 25 LB bag of teff from a decent seller.

It works better than other wheat/gluten substitutes. It is like very fine sand and not like gum or caking flours, so instead of making elastic dough or crumbly pancakes, it makes fluffy, relatively light, sweet tasting baked goods with just enough flexibility to be successful. It also compliments cocoa and carob flavors. The only concerns for traditionalists might be that it, like any non gluten, can't ever be as tough as gluten and it has a dark color (due to a high percentage of bran rather than starch). It is filling, pleasant, and not expensive when compared to most wheat alternative or exotic flours.

My local store does not carry the Teff flour from Bob's Red Mill. So, I was happy to see it on Amazon. It's a tasty flour that I had not used before but America's Test Kitchen Gluten Free Volume 2 has a gluten free mix that includes Teff and I really like how flavorsome it makes my homemade gluten free bread.

I read the other reviews and thought I would try anyway, but sadly, I also had a hole puncture near the bottom and side of one bag so flour leaked all over inside the box. I can’t blame Amazon because the box was completely sealed when it arrived. This box was directly from Bob’s Red Mill, so this puncture was caused by them. The other 3 bags in the box are fine. Maybe it’s faulty equipment that needs to be fixed because it’s not every bag that has a hole puncture. They need to address this problem.
