Traditional ground or bean coffee is an excellent "base" to which you can add many ingredients for flavor: spices, dates, syrups.
How about enriching the taste of the drink in your cup with nuts? It's an interesting idea that is very easy to implement.
To begin with, it is worth choosing the right nuts for this. These can be hazelnuts, almonds, cashews, pecans or macadamia nuts, as well as the popular peanuts.
If the nuts are not roasted, they will need to be lightly roasted in a dry frying pan. Sometimes the roasting is done along with the coffee beans, sometimes separately.
After this, the nuts need to be ground in a coffee grinder and the resulting powder used as an additive to coffee.
How to brew a drink with nuts? If you have a French press at home, pour a couple of teaspoons of ground coffee, one spoon of ground nuts, pour boiling water and after 5 minutes pour the finished coffee into a cup.
Is it possible to brew coffee with nuts in a Turk? Yes, and the preparation process is also very simple. Just don't forget that you will have to pour the drink into a cup through a strainer to filter out large particles of nuts.
If you have special drip bags at home, it is easy to make coffee with a delicate nutty flavor. Fill the bag with coffee and nut powder and pour boiling water over it, so that everything is ready in a few minutes.
Do you prepare an invigorating drink in the morning in a coffee machine? In this case, it is better to enrich it not with ground nuts, but with urbech.
Finally, you can add finely ground nuts to the finished drink. True, this will make the coffee a little cloudy, but the taste of almonds or roasted hazelnuts will make it more intense.
You can also add additional flavors to nutty coffee by adding a small amount of rum, various syrups and liqueurs.
Few would argue that coffee with added nuts is delicious. But is it healthy? Yes, and very much so.
Firstly, nuts are a filling product. This means that a cup of coffee with ground almonds or peanut butter can be a good alternative to breakfast.
Secondly, by drinking coffee with nuts, you will get vigor and energy not only due to caffeine, but also due to the beneficial Omega acids necessary for normal brain function.
Thirdly, do not forget that any nuts are rich in vitamins and minerals. Iodine, B vitamins, selenium, zinc, iron, vitamin E - this is far from a complete list of the useful substances that nuts contain.
Experiment with coffee drinks and the types of nuts you add to them to discover the optimal balance of gastronomic pleasure and health benefits.
