Teff can be added to soups or stews in two ways (as a grain):
1. Add it to the pot and cook for half an hour before serving.
2. Add it cooked to the pot 10 minutes before serving.
Cooked teff can be mixed with herbs, seeds, beans, or tofu, along with garlic and onions, to make grain burgers. The seeds can also be sprouted, and the sprouts added to salads and sandwiches.
To cook teff, the ratio is 2 cups of purified water, 1/2 cup of teff, and 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt (optional) in a saucepan.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it rest, covered, for 5 minutes.
