the only plate you can eat, edible tablecloth and utensil rolled into sour flatbread.
means A spongy, slightly sour Ethiopian and Eritrean flatbread made from fermented teff flour, served as the base on which stews and other dishes are spooned and scooped up by hand.
from From Amharic እንጀራ (ənǧära), the staple bread of Ethiopia and Eritrea. Its defining sourness comes from teff, a tiny indigenous grain ground and left to ferment for days, and its bubbly, pockmarked surface from the gases of that fermentation. The word travels with the dish itself, naming both the bread and, by extension, the meal it carries.
