Shiro!
Shiro tegabino is my favorite food here. It's pretty simple - a sauce-like mixture of water and spices and you eat it with injera. It's bubbling in a little pot when they bring it out to you at restaurants which makes it even more exciting.
Really, the only thing I haven't liked so far was kitfo, a mixture of raw meat that we had on Easter. It tasted okay but I couldn't wrap my head around the idea of eating something that raw.
Injera (the pancake-like white thing in the picture) has definitely grown on me - it's really sour, may be an acquired taste at first, but I've started to have these intense cravings for it lately, even though we are eating it all the time! It's made out of teff which is this really tiny grain that is one of Ethiopia's main crops.
Good thing Denver has a lot of Ethiopian restaurants...
