Greetings from Vermont… I’m not actually supposed to be here right now. I was heading to Minneapolis to see my mom but my flight got canceled along with about 5000 other flights in the neck last couple of days. It’s OK. My Trip got moved out to Sunday… Which will be fine. The ironic thing is despite dire warnings have a huge snowstorm… I woke up this morning to rain… But then it’s sprinkled snow all day. When I came out of work at about 730 tonight I expected to see a huge amount of snow. I have less than an inch on my car
I did just go spend some time working in the shop and I walked out and I noticed a couple more inches and fallen so perhaps we will get a nice dumping. I really hope so. I love the snow
Earlier in the week I reported on the experiment to try to create real Ethiopian injira bread from the grain teff. ‘Kyle and I had put it in to soak I believe on Sunday… As I reported a couple of days ago it turned kind of blue green but we were reassured by the recipe that it was supposed to look like that. Anyway we made a pretty yummy Ethiopian meal with Goma kale spiced with Ethiopian bererie And a spicy red lentil dish. Those came out perfectly but unfortunately our experiments with making imjira Had only mixed success. The batch that we made using baking yeast came out slightly better… We were able to actually pull it off the pan and roll it up. It had a good sour taste. But it didn’t have the nice budging is that the real restaurant style injira had . The version that we made using natural yeast… The one with the blue green mold on it… While it tasted fine it really didn’t hold up in the pan very well. Anyway we got enough of the rolled up bread that we actually had a pretty good and convincing meal. We’re gonna try it again when Diane gets back… This time we’re going to try to add a little bit of wheat flour to the Dough
