To make Dalgona coffeee, you just need to whip it (and we do mean whip it good).
Everything old is new again. It was called fake cappuccino, home cappuccino or similar words, an eon ago when espresso machines only existed in cafes run by southern Europeans and we in Oz were yet to become coffee snobs.
Didnât the Government say they wanted to âfatten the curveâ?
WHAT THE ACTUAL⊠whyyyyyy!!!
I think Iâll give it a miss. I stopped putting sugar in coffee years ago, and instant coffee is known as âbrown sadness waterâ in our house. We keep a jar of Coles organic freeze dried for extreme emergencies only - when any coffee is better than no coffee.
I have been working on my Japanese pour-over technique with the Hario though. It isnât easy, but when you get it right the results are spectacular. Hands down the best version of coffee around.
Certainly one of my best coffee experiences.
Up there with Colombian sourced chocolate coated Coffee beans.
On the Dalgona style of coffee. Itâs still just instant coffee, and it needs the added sugar to cream. Iâll stay with a daily double shot plus skim milk, lightly frothed.
Some of us donât need the added sugar.
Got bored this afternoon and gave it a go, using Coles Freeze Dried and my el cheapo Adesso stick blender from Woolies.
I blended and blended and blended until the blender literally started to smoke, but I couldnât get it to âwhipâ. I got a thick custard like consistency. I poured on top of cold milk.
Tried to mix the coffee blend into the milk but it was really really difficult. Basically tasted like cheap iced coffee. I wasnât a fan at all. The Husband thought it was good but you really canât trust his opinion on coffee - the only reason he doesnât drink the cheapest instant available is that heâs too addicted and needs the caffeine content of strong brewed coffee
Now I need go and clean all of the dalgona splatters off my kitchen splashbackâŠ
Well, it made for a nice photo at least!
Apparently you can do the same trick using Milo, but I havenât heard too much support for this either.
