Hi.

Well I saw the below recipe and thought that looks really good.

I have never used/heard of teff flour before so when I went to our local health food store and saw Teff I automatically bought it not thinking....

Open Original Shared Link

I bought Whole Grain Teff rather then Teff Flour... ahh who would have thought <_<

Now I need to use the Whole Grain Teff for something...

Has anyone used this ingredient before?

What do you do with it??

I went to Bob's Red Mill and took off the recipe to make a hot cereal and looked at the couple other recipes they have but I still don't know what to do with it.

Please Help (ahh I paid $7 something for this and don't want to toss it because it expired before I figure something out).

Thank you!!!!

I've used teff flour before to make injera bread for Ethiopian dishes, but never whole grain teff. I was at my health food store looking for teff flour one time and they only had the whole grain, and she suggested grinding it myself. Sounds like a lot of work, but it's worth a try!

I have never done that before... Do you use a food processor or ___?

Thanks again

Hi, it is very easy to grind teff, it is such a small grain. I use a little coffee grinder I bought at walmart for less than 15.00 to grind

flax, teff basically any of the small grains.

It works really well.

I cooked it, and then used it to make a tabbouleh type salad. It's kind of gelatinous when you cook it, so I let it cool and then mixed it with the other ingredients.

Thank you for the replies. Sorry haven't really been on the computer much lately.

Thanks for the pointer about the small coffee grinder. I found a decent priced one at WalMart and am looking forward to trying it out.

Thanks again

      Thank you for the reply In the early 2000's I did not have the endoscopy nor the biopsy I do not have those initial records I have only consulted a GI drs in the USA

      Welcome to the forum, @numike! We sometimes get reports like yours from community members who believe their celiac disease has "gone away." We think there can sometimes be cases of remission but not long term healing and that continued consumption of gluten will eventually result in a relapse. This is the state of our knowledge at this point but there is still a lot we don't know and celiac disease continues to surprise us with new findings on a frequent basis. So, we would not advise you to abandon a strict gluten-free diet. Perhaps you can draw consolation from the fact that at the present time you seem to be able to consume gluten without consequences when in situations where you do not have the option to eat gluten-free. But I would advise you to not generalize your recent experience such that you throw caution to the wind. But I want to go back to what you said about being diagnosed by blood test in the early 2000's. Did you not also have that confirmed with an endoscopy and biopsy of the small bowel lining? Normally, a celiac disease diagnosis is not concluded based on a blood test alone because there can be false positives. What kind of doctor did this testing? Was it done in the U.S. or overseas? In the last few years, it has become common in the U.K. to grant a celiac diagnosis from blood testing alone if the antibody test scores are 10x normal or greater. But that practice has not caught on in the U.S. yet and was not in place internationally in the early 2000's. Do you have a record of the tests that were done, the scores and also the reference ranges for negative vs. positive for the tests?

      Check out this celiac story  I was diagnosed early 2000s with the blood test  since then I have for the most part maintained a gluten-free diet  Recently (August 2025) I drove from Southern Illinois to Lake Erie Ohio On the drive back I was extremely hungry and I had a coupon at a hamburger chain and I stopped and forgot to request gluten-free bun etc and quickly consumed two hamburgers. I promptly ate both of them and had absolutely no problem since then I've been eating plenty of gluten  Is my celiac gone?  Insert: No, celiac disease cannot just end because there is no cure for it; however, a strict, lifelong gluten-free diet allows the small intestine to heal and symptoms to go away. To manage the condition effectively, you must strictly avoid all sources of gluten, including wheat, barley, and rye, which are common in the American diet. Sticking to the diet can lead to significant symptom improvement and intestinal healing, but it requires ongoing commitment and monitoring with a healthcare professional  Regarding medical test I had My stools analyzed Giardia Ag Cryptosporidium Ag and they came back negative  I had the lactulose test and it came back high so I'm on two weeks of heavy antibiotics That still has not stopped me from eating gluten. Here's what I think is going on and I hope to have your opinion regarding it  Since I've been gluten-free for so long my intestinal tract has repaired itself consequently anything I eat with gluten now just bounces right off with no damage to my gut  however  when I asked AI what was going on the reply was celiac has not gone away and  if I continue to eat gluten I'm going to have problems   I look forward to your sage advice as to what the heck is going on with me Thank you for reading Mike 09112025

      I agree, and generally it means that it isn't working in a high enough percentage of participants to continue pursuing it.

      It is more likely code for “we think there really was a good response to the treatment, but it was small or in a small percent of subjects so it would take a large clinical trial to try to prove it.”
