Injera is unique staple food to Ethiopia & Eritrea best known for spongy sourdough flatbread. It's a mixture of Teff (nutrient-dense & gluten-free), barley, corn & self-rising flour. Learn to mix the dough in class and carefully observe batter as it readies to be baked. Everyone will take a turn making injera and then take home a dinner prepared by Alganesh to enjoy. One meat and two vegetarian dishes will be served.
This is a participatory class. A small group of 3-4 students will work together at each cooking station to prepare the Injera.
"I loved this class! Alganesh is a wonderful, joyful teacher who makes the class so enjoyable and everything tastes so delicious. I have taken all of her classes and will take them again."
My name is Alganesh Michael, I live in S Burlington with my husband and two daughters. I’m a former nurse turned homemaker for 16 or so years. Although I’m not a chef by trade, I love to cook and entertain my family and friends. I have been working in collaboration with many local restaurants for several years. I host Ethiopian/Eritrean cuisine and have popularized this ethnic cooking in the Lake Champlain region of Vermont. I also teach cooking classes, cater private parties of any sizes as well.

I cook and serve the food in a traditional way. I use spices to make it authentic and serve it in a big platter with different sauces.
