Description

Chef Rahel Musa, of Teff-rific, will teach students how to prepare aliciha, silsi, and injera- the Tigrinya names for the fare of her native Eritrea. Alicha is a hearty vegetable dish with cabbage and potatoes, birsen is lentils simmered in the ancient spice blend berbere, and silsi is the spicy base-sauce for many Eritrean dishes. Lastly this workshop will cover how to make Injera: the staple flatbread of Eritrea East Africa made from nutritious, gluten-free Teff flour, which serves as a tasty, eat-with-your-hands “plate” that soaks up all the delicious dishes laid upon it. Afterwards we will enjoy these foods as we dine and discover about Eritrean Cuisine.
