What The Country Cooks
Eritrean cuisine is a vibrant blend of native culinary traditions and influences from neighboring Ethiopia and Italy. It is characterized by its use of injera, a spongy flatbread made from teff or other grains, served with flavorful stews often featuring beef, goat, lamb, fish, and a variety of vegetables. The cuisine is known for its lighter use of spices compared to Ethiopian food, with a greater emphasis on tomatoes and seafood due to Eritrea's coastal location. Italian colonial history also brings pasta dishes and the use of curry powders and cumin into the mix.
