How I Love My Coffee
Coffee is the drink of choice for many…it is exciting, intriguing and comforting. People all over the world come together for coffee. For me, there is no better place to savour a cup of coffee than in my kitchen, either alone or sharing with family or friends. It is one of those familiar and enjoyable routines that I observe.
With my love of coffee, comes my passion for food and cooking, and the many food pairings and recipes that call for the inclusion of coffee. What kind of coffee goes with berries, chocolate, baked goods, savoury dishes? My quest is to incorporate more coffee in my cooking. How about coffee in chilli, lamb/pork and of course all the baked goodies and desserts? I have used many recipes with coffee and have been amazed at the unique qualities it brings out in the dishes. That said, I will leave you with Affogato – one of my favourite desserts that I first tried in Europe.
My recipe:
Affogato…(Italian, meaning “drowned”)
1 scoop of premium ice cream in a glass
1 oz. of my favourite hot espresso poured over the ice cream
Enjoy!
