Ingredients: Grains and Hops

There are markets in every city, town and village in Ethiopia, as you might expect. The famous 'Mercato' in Addis Ababa is rather overwhelming. The most pleasant and interesting market we visited was at Axum (also Aksum) in the north of the country. The market traders were mostly (but not only) women, and a great variety of produce was available.
