I'm American but my wife is Ethiopian and everything is beautiful from my wife to the food and the culture. I love Ethiopian people and their foods and culture. Thank you so much for bringing all the beautiful things that I love so much...
The best thing about Ethiopian food is that it’s vegan friendly 💕. My favorite experience will always be when visiting friends in Ethiopia and they feed you your food with the injera using their own hands as a symbol of love, sharing and family. Most humble people I know.
The spice is called Berbre. Berbre is a blend of 12 to 22 different spices. Dark red chile, coriander, black and white cumin, ginger, garlic, cloves, rue, Sweet basil, rosemary, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, black paper..etc. each family in Ethiopia they have their own Berbre blend. We use Berbre for most of our stew, like Doro wet ( chicken stew), Lentil stew, lamb tibes. The bread we use to eat is called Enjera. Enjera is made from Teff, a local grain. Teff has two different colors brown and white. Both are traditional.Teff is one of the new super grains. One cup of Teff has more calcium than a cup of milk, twice as much iron as wheat and barley, and is a very high protein grain It’s packed full of lot’s of other minerals, like phosphorus and magnesium, and is 100% gluten-free. Enjoy Ethiopian food!!!! Thanks for sharing!
Ethiopian cuisine has to be one of my favorite cuisines! There is a place in Wellington NZ called Mother Of Coffee - it is a very homely place. It smells of coffee beans and the city. It is located right in the heart of Wellington Central. The injera is tangy and spongey and their vegan platter is bold with whatever vegetables the chef is working with on a particular night. The vegan platter is my favorite! The chickpeas are simmered down to an almost paste and it is lovingly seasoned. Perfect for a chilly night - it warms your core! Good and honest food.
Man men, the level of details is insane! I thought you had an Ethiopian women behind you. I thank you just because you took an interest in my country. I have seen a lot of Ethiooian food review, I ll bet any one to find such a depth of detail. Peace and love ma men.
I think Ethiopia is laky to have you as her ambassador. Thank you very much for telling the world how the food, culture, and the people etc. are wonderful. It takes one to know one. GOD bless.
kitfo (ክትፎ) and Gored gored (Amharic: ጎረድ ጎረድ This classic Ethiopian dish may be served either raw or cooked tho, I eat what is cooked, I don't eat raw, Your knowledge about Ethiopian culture and food and religion is amazing 👍
In Ethiopia and Eritrea talking while eating is actually „no go“ and chewing with open mouth also „no go“ nevertheless bro you made my mouth watering and my stomach roaring like a lion 👍🏽😂
The Ethiopian church marks close to 250 days of the calendar year as fasting days. The devout are vegan 70% of the time. The remaining days are open to eating animal products.
Excellent information! I am going to give you a constructive criticism and a lesson on "How to Eat Injera?" Please, do not suck fingers, make a slurping noise, eat fast or talk while you are eating. In Ethiopia, it is a very offending manner ( Unlike Japan, slurping is expected and appreciated). As in Western Countries, you also have "Table Manners". You just have to take your time, only use one hand. Tear the Injera piece, wrap it on your choosen sauce. With firm fingers grab and with out dropping any of it on your cloth, put it in your mouth ( not shoving) and chew in moderation. Not pushing your fingers inside your mouth or sucking the fingers!! Use napkins. Just to let you know, Ethiopian culture is full of manners!! Including eating Injera. Otherwise, enjoy eating any times!! Cheers!!
@@DocTommy1972 Not quite since he mentioned he comes to Ethiopia often he has to improve. We traditionally eat of a platter together, thus the ability to eat while observing the proper etiquettes is critical. Host or guest all are expected to eat properly and only eat from what is available directly infront of you. Reaching across, licking fingers, chewing loud or visibly, eating large mouthfuls (you should only use one side of the jaw to chew), using more than the first segment of your fingers, drinking inbetween bites unless you are a child, getting up before everyone is finished, etc is frowned upon. Only limited talking on polite subjects after you swallow, checking to make sure those sitting to your right and left are eating as well, helping children if any are seated beside you, reciprocating if anyone feeds you by hand or accepting with both hands if anyone hands you food, etc. are expected. These rules are strictly inforced when eating together or alone because it shows your respect for the meal. Besides being able to do these basic things will greatly increase the esteem your hosts or guests have towards you, since you will have exhibited that you are actually decent/civilised or as we say ጨዋ።
