    I am Ethiopian and I approve this video! In the temperate zone, it is made differently and we don’t mix teff with other things and the yeast is natural. But, great work here for people like me who reside in the north hemisphere! Sometimes, I make instant injera and it comes out all “blind”. lol I add even apple cider! lol

    indian dosa batter which takes much shorter fermentation time also calls for adding small amount of fenugreek ... they add seeds ...very few indian recipes use fenugreek powder but it is ground coarsely and added to indian pickles along with coarsely ground mustard seeds ... since coarse mustard is also used in kanji making ... kanji is a fermented water with mustard and other spices including ... i have a feeling that this traditional recipes and ingredients have to do with encouraging growth of right kind of fermentation germs and inhibiting growth of wrong kind of germs ... or these ingredients are rich in terms needed for fermentation
