Hey! I am intrigued by your coffee.. never liked Nescafe, thought its too much coffee and less chicory.. will definitely try this one out!!
ReplyDeleteSushma, whenever i have family visiting,they request this coffee. Try it and i am sure you will enjoy it Let me know how it goes!
ReplyDeleteSushma, also can you please post the way in which you made coffee when we visited you. I really enjoyed that and would love to try it out. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I wish I could take credit for it:) the magic ingredient was Coffee Day coffee powder from India! I have see it here in an Indian store (Coffee day brand), never tried it though.
ReplyDeleteSushma, do you mind sharing with us how you made that coffee though, i want to know the process you followed and ingredients you used.
ReplyDeleteSure!
ReplyDeleteI used Espresso Maker to make coffee decoction. I find the coffee decoction made by the regular coffee maker(which uses paper filter) little watery.. you could heat up milk either in microwave or on stove top, but making coffee on stove top gives it an added flavor.. then add sugar and later I frothed it up with the frothing gadget I had, in India this process is usually done by transferring milk from one tumbler to another. Then add the hot decoction as per your taste. If you reheat the coffee after this point it'll lose its flavor a bit.
Thanks Sushma, this is awesome! can't wait till i try it out.
