Special thanks to Christine Jensen & Eydis West who suggested books this month. It’s difficult to find books available for Ethiopia which are also translated into English so these suggestions were welcome additions.
But before we vote, I have to tell you about this amazing cookbook I found written by a native Ethiopian chef—& it’s cheap on Kindle right now!

“Along with photography of the stunning landscapes and vibrant artisans of Ethiopia, combined with insightful cultural and historical details, this book demonstrates why Ethiopian food should be considered one of the world's most singular and enchanting cuisines.
After training in France and working as a chef around the world, Yohanis Gebreyesus decided it was time to return home and focus his skills on showing off what his native country has to offer.
‘Chef Yohanis’ commitment to Ethiopian cuisine is rooted in protecting the history of the food and its preparation, which includes the produce. Emerging as a culinary star in Ethiopia, he sheds light on the nation’s diverse palate.’ –-Cuisine Noir
Experience the wonderful flavors and traditions of Ethiopia in Chef Yohanis' dazzling collection of recipes.”
Delicious & healthy too! Now onto the vote.
