This month will be the final Feature Kitchen takeaway for the foreseeable future. After five very agreeable years and 57 months of features - with cooks and cuisine from over 30 different regions, The Feature Kitchen will be taking an indefinite break from the end of April. The takeaway business has remained in fine health through these years thanks to all the support 🙏🏾. It started with an idea, £250, a mailing list of 30 and the phenomenal talents of Genet & Abeba 🇪🇹 . It has surpassed everything I expected. A close friend recently told me that after a few good chapters, books 📖 don't just go on and on, they come to an end. I felt that.

It has been terrific, thanks for all the orders and all the feedback, and a special thanks to all the cooks, the kitchen assistants, drivers 🚗, our host kitchen Lewes Community Kitchen/Chef, 📸ers and everyone else that has made this happen.

I'm hoping to continue working with Alex (beyond April's finale!) & all the guest chefs in some capacity in the future. And ja, there might an epilogue, a new edition, or a sequel but for now, 🙏🏾....

Oh, and by the way, where is your order for this month??? You don't wanna taste what Alex and I are cooking up these next three weekends? No?? Listen, we ain't gawyn just yet, final few pages mate!

Teff grows abundantly in the central and highland areas of Ethiopia & Eritrea. Not so much around Washington DC 🇺🇸, Netanya 🇮🇱, Melbourne 🇦🇺 or these South Downs 🇬🇧. With this tiny ancient grain traditionally being hard to source and expensive to import from East Africa, the large 🇪🇷 Habesha 🇪🇹 migrant population did & do what diaspora in new settings do: adapt.

Some make the injera ferment with barley, wheat, millet or sorghum, or a mix, perhaps just a handful of precious teff thrown in. Genet & Abeba here in Brighton often make injera using rice and wheat flour. It makes a nice injera - the small eyes are present, the slight sourness, the fluffy tear - but perhaps not with the qualities teff offers: high protein, plenty of essential minerals, vitamin B & C, fibre. It's good for muscle development, the gut, your immune system, circulation, your bones. This grain also goes by Lovegrass 😊. It's a marketeer's dream. Your body could not be better looked after!

This month, was introduced to and like magic, large affordable bags of stone-milled teff were available to us 🤩. So what did we do? Alex and I travelled to Croydon & we purchased a nice 20kg bag. So, all through this month (Jan), Genet - who is in the kitchen from this weekend! - will be making 100% dark teff injera (🙏🏾 Little Addis), and all that entails ☝🏾. And a whole host of delicious ♥️ wats. Check out menu on website.

*Btw - it won't look like these pics; they are of the tasty rice & wheat past. The future is browner, full of iron, protein rich, gluten-free and reassuringly delicious.
