    I say thank you being transparent in the making. Being Ethiopian had no idea of making Injera until I got the lesson from you. By the way, I was watching your whole process with my wife who had tried few time in past and could not make one. I now telling you that with your feedback she is making great ones. I salute you!

    Just wanted to let anyone who's looking for a suffid (cooling mat) know that I got the sefed and the large seteta at Brundo Market online. If you're paying for the shipping you might want to get both of them, as the sefed is thicker than the seteta and might be too thick to get the injera off the grill without scratching it but is good for cooling.
    Also, I found that using distilled water instead of tap water made a huge positive difference in the fermentation. I didn't actually use a starter, but left out the teff flour and water on the countertop for 2 days. Another thing that made a big difference was mixing in a little baking powder, about 1/3-1/2 tsp, to each cup right before cooking it, since my version was gluten-free and didn't have self-rising flour. This transformed the injera from a gooey mess into a cohesive round pancake with lots of "eyes" even when I poured the batter into a corner of the grill.
    Thank you for posting this video, as I never would have been able to make the injera without all of your tips. Although my final version was tweaked to account for wanting it to be gluten-free, the basics came from your shared experiences and your efforts in making this excellent video are much appreciated!

    You can make injera with 100 percent Teff if you want, you just need to add a little bit of bread yeast along with the starter at the beginning and do absit 6 hours before when you are ready to bake the injera. Add a teaspoon of baking powder when the batter is ready to be baked. I have tried this method many times and it works like a charm to get beautiful 100 percent Teff injera.

    Wow, you are so amazing awesome guy! You know what? I am Habesha one of those people who feed injera traditionally. When I was in back home it was easy for me to make injera using the normal tools Mogogo and so on, after I came to western I don’t know whether it is from the type of flour or weather. The injera I tried to meake wasn’t good and was terrible to eat (wasn’t testy as usual) and finally I left to make. So your video was very helpful to initiate me and try it again. And it helped me a lot to make better and even best. Thank you very much, may God bless you abundantly.

It might be of the difference of the ingredients or the type of mogogo. Your way is helpful, thank you for sharing. For sure, I will try it and hopefully I can make good injera.

    Your video was very helpful. I had tried injera a week or so earlier, but it wasn't very good. So I looked at some videos, found yours, and tried again, with a mixture of ivory and brown teff flours and an established gluten free sourdough starter (brown rice flour). I have a Tibos electric crepe/dosa griddle (13") which worked pretty well. Your guidance was much appreciated. Thank you for your effort in making the video.
