I add ingredients to make it savory or sweet according to which meal it will served. I reheat the amount that I need in the microwave with a small amount of water. Easy when you want only one serving, make it what you want sweet or savory. I also cook a big batch, with only water and salt.

We eat it both ways sweet and savory. One of our favorites is butter and garlic powder with just a tiny bit of salt. Thank you Annie for the info on microwaving. It is amazing how some people always want to get off topic, we are commenting on Teff. Now someone may want to lecture me on butter. Our family loves Teff. We eat it both ways sweet and savory.

I, too cook the Teff pretty much the same way as stated, but the following day I like it cold. Anytime I cook a meal, I cook enough for two or three days. I enjoy the first hot meal, but the next two (chilled) are even more delicious. I got rid of my nuclear cooking box two years ago because of the dangers of radiation. Additionally microwaves render food dead and void of nutritional properties. Health and prosperity to all!

As you guessed Teff is the whole (and very tiny) grains where Teff flour is the milled product of the grains. Teff flour makes a great addition to gluten-free baking when mixed with other gluten-free flours. I've had good luck using it in muffins so far. Hi TreeHgnMma- Teff is not the same as Teff flour.

Thank you for reporting back. I would encourage you to delve a little deeper into the research around microwaving food. Every food has different characteristics but in general the microwave does not kill the nutrients in food. Prolonged exposure to high heat and immersion in water will do more to eliminate nutrients than the microwave. Here is a brief summary from the New York Times: <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/17/health/17real.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/17/health/17real.html</a> and one from the Harvard Medical School:<a href="http://www.health.harvard.edu/fhg/updates/Microwave-cooking-and-nutrition.shtml" rel="nofollow">http://www.health.harvard.edu/fhg/updates/Microwave-cooking-and-nutrition.shtml </a> Veronica – I’m glad that you tried the teff!

I did like it with my yogurt. However if you are cooking this wonderful grain on weekends and heating it up through the week. Using the microwave ruins your motives for eating healthy. It heats at such a high temp that it kills all the nutients in evrything you cook. I have just tried teff for the first time, I will have to work with it. I did like it with my yogurt.
