OK, I used pecorino cheese as I had a ¼ lb and some fresh basil; this seemed a good way to use both up. (I also have some real quality cilantro), so… In conjunction with this dip I made Christine’s Injera bread. [#10311] They work ok together. I am hoping my wife will play some ping-pong, loser cooks, because I am too full of cheese and buckwheat to cook well. Anyhow this is ok, but still, in the end rather Mediterranean, not the exotic “ETHIOPIAN,” I was hoping for. I must note my lemon zest is prissy, and making little dent in the taste.
