Teff: Brown/Red
(Eragrostis tef)
Teff is an annual tufted grass, growing to 1 m in height, with very small grains that may be ground into flour or eaten as a porridge. Teff is grown as a cereal crop primarily in Ethiopia. The grain is ground into flour, fermented and made into Injera, a sourdough-type flat bread.
This teff variety has seeds that are brownish red. It is a hardy and fast maturing variety, maturing in about 4 months. Historically, it has grown better in south Florida, USA than the 'White' variety.
