A Toast to Teff

Versatile teff is every bit as good for breakfast as it is for dinner.  When cooked with dates, cloves and honey, this breakfast porridge is sweet and filling, with a texture that reminded me of chia jam.  The recipe is on the Bob's Red Mill package.  

Teff Porridge with Dates & Honey

(Serves 1)

In a saucepan over medium heat, toast teff for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
2 tablespoon teff

Add buttery spread, cloves and water.  Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
1/3 teaspoon buttery spread
2 whole cloves
3 ounce water

Stir in dates and honey.  Simmer for 5 additional minutes.
2 tablespoon dates, chopped
1 teaspoon honey

Serve with strawberries.
2 large strawberries, diced 

I bet this is good cold-layered in a parfait with yogurt and fruit!
