Teff ORGANIC Grain High Quality

Product DescriptionSpecificationsTeff ORGANIC grainHealth Benefits of Teff
Teff leads all the grains – by a wide margin – in its calcium content, with a cup of cooked teff offering 123 mg, about the same amount of calcium as in a half-cup of cooked spinach. It’s also an excellent source of vitamin C, a nutrient not commonly found in grains.
Teff was long believed to be high in iron, but more recent tests have shown that its iron content comes from soil mixed with the grain after it’s been threshed on the ground – the grain itself is not unusually high in iron.
Teff is, however, high in resistant starch, a newly-discovered type of dietary fiber that can benefit blood-sugar management, weight control, and colon health. It’s estimated that 20-40% of the carbohydrates in teff are resistant starches. A gluten-free grain with a mild flavor, teff is a healthy and versatile ingredient for many gluten-free products.
Since teff’s bran and germ make up a large percentage of the tiny grain, and it’s too small to process, teff is always eaten in its whole form. It’s been estimated that Ethiopians get about two-thirds of their dietary protein from teff. Many of Ethiopia’s famed long-distance runners attribute their energy and health to teff.Cooking Teff
In Ethiopia, teff is usually ground into flour and fermented to make the spongy, sourdough bread known as. As anyone knows who has eaten at an Ethiopian restaurant anywhere in the world,is used as an edible serving plate. Food is piled on a large round ofon a tray in the middle of the table and different foods are served directly onto the. The diners eat by tearing off bits of, and rolling the food inside. Ethiopians also use teff to make porridge and for alcoholic beverages, includingand.
Today, teff is moving way beyond its traditional uses. It’s an ingredient in pancakes, snacks, breads, cereals and many other products, especially those created for the gluten-free market. You can also buy teff wraps.
White or ivory teff has the mildest flavor, with darker varities having an earthier taste. Those who have only tasted teff in injera assume it has a sour taste, but when it is not fermented (made into a sourdough), teff has a sweet and light flavor.Packaging & Shipping Packaging Detailsin bags of 20, 25, 50, 100 kiloDelivery Details2 weeksCompany InformationTEFFCOM is one of the leading Teff food export company based in Tel aviv, israel.
