Coffee should be black as Hell, strong as death, and sweet as love. ~ Turkish Proverb It is cold and rainy today. I did not sleep too well last night and as such it's a great time for coffee to keep me awake. Suanne made me Vietnamese Coffee which is also known as Cafe Sua Nong. Vietnamese Coffee is normally served in ice but I like it warm on a cold day like today.
Vietnames coffee can be made simply by mixing black coffee with a lot of condensed milk. It is traditionally made by brewing the coffee with a small drip percolator into a cup containing condensed milk. We bought the percolator some time back from the T&T Supermarket. We can't recall exactly how much it costs but it's pretty cheap ... something like $5 or so.
We use whole coffee beans and like to grind it just before we use it to ensure freshness. Coffee once ground deteriorates fast. Ignore the Folgers can on the picture below ... we just used the can to store our coffee beans.
This is how we made our Vietnamese Coffee:
So, here it is ... a cup of warm, black, strong and sweet coffee. Just what I needed for this blog. Enjoy!
