Steps to Make It:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt until well mixed. Then add the water, stirring until combined.
2. Cover loosely with a paper towel and let stand, undisturbed overnight.
3. Gently agitate the mixture with a spoon in the next day (if there are  bubbles already forming on the surface). Cover again and let stand at room temperature, undisturbed overnight. Repeat this cycle once more.
4. After 3-4 days, your injera should smell sour and be very bubbly, stir the mixture until combined.
5. Heat a large, lightly-oiled heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Add about 1/3 cup of the batter to the skillet, forming a thin layer of batter over the pan. Cook until bubbles form on the entire surface of the injera.
