Ethiopian food is made to share and enjoyed by hand. All the stews (called Wot in Amharic or Sebhi in Tigrigna) are served on injera - a fermented flat bread made out of teff. The bread will also double up as your utensil - as Ethiopian food is finger food. It's considered good manners in Ethiopian culture for individuals dining together to wash their hand before and after their meal.
