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

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.

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.

Perfect for the bread recipe I use! Fresh and tasty as always!

I like the product. I wish it was fine ground.I use it to make Injera predominantly & it comes out fine.

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.

I use this to make chocolate teff flour cookies and they are great. When baking with teff flour it helps to let the batter or dough rest so the flour absorbs the moisture. But even if you do not let the dough rest the result is awesome to taste and good for you as well.

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.

I've been purchasing Bob's Red Mill products for many years. This particular one has become unavailable at the health stores that normally would carry it. Teff flour probably isn't so popular but because I have committed to gluten free living, it serves as a substitute or addition to cake mixes and cookies from scratch. I love it because it gives a nutty, full bodied taste . This particular item is also Non-GMO. It offers healthy doses of potassium and protein per serving. The nutritional factor is the main element I pay attention to and the second factor is the way it can be used.

A very powdery flour, and yet gritty. Ended up mixing it with other flours for better consistency. Beremeal is the best flour I've used. I can recommend that.
