Can you put butter in your coffee?

To be honest, when I first heard of it I thought it sounded pretty gross. Buttery coffee? It sounded like something you’d have to force down while holding your nose .

Some people on a ketogenic, or low carbohydrate diet will add butter to their coffee to help them increase their daily fat intake and also to help in reducing their appetite. I must say, after drinking this “butter coffee” myself, I can say that it helps on both fronts. However, If you are watching your fat intake for any reason, this is definitely not going to be the beverage for you.

If you’d like to try putting some butter in your coffee, MF Coffee advises to start out with just a tablespoon of melted butter. The maximum we have ever added is 2 tablespoons. We believe that if you add too much fat initially, you may find yourself unexpectedly sprinting to the bathroom and this is absolutely not good.

With the extensive testing conducted, we find that butter goes much better with darker coffee grounds (which can be purchased on our website mfproducts.co.uk). The flavours simply work well together. Also, because butter is mostly oil and coffee is water-based the two naturally repel each other. The way we’ve fixed this is by pouring the warm coffee into a plastic blender and then adding the butter and whatever else you’d like. This can a creamer, sugar, or maybe an essence like vanilla or cinnamon.

Whatever you decide, make your ‘butter coffee” with MFCoffee today.

We hope you enjoy, it's quite the treat!

How to make the MF Soursop smoothie.

Good evening MF Blog readers, we hope you all are staying active during this cold Christmas season. As the year draws to a close, MF Products still have a variety of tasty recipes to broadcast and this week we will be looking at how we can use our MF Soursop to make some delightful treats. Today we will be making our very own MF Soursop smoothie with bananas and almonds. We chose bananas due it’s alpha and beta carotene content when consumed by the body, this then turns in vitamin A. Bananas are also a good source of potassium and due to its low water content, it contains more calories and is more filling. This pairs wonderfully with the benefits of soursop (previously mentioned in another blog) as it; possesses antioxidants, fights against bacteria, and boosts the immune system. Almonds are also very beneficial as they contain unsaturated fats, fibre, magnesium as well as protein. When adding all three ingredients together, this is a very healthy smoothie that will help to ...

Benefits of pimento (also known as allspice).

Before we get into the benefits of pimento, at MF Products UK we believe we must look at a foods history first and learn about its origin. So, without further ado let’s look into pimento which is also known as allspice. The pimento tree is indigenous to the Caribbean Islands. It was found growing in Jamaica by early Spanish explorers who were quite impressed with its tantalising taste and aroma of the berries and the leaves. Pimento trees were then later discovered in Cuba and were presumed to have been taken there by migrant birds who had eaten the berries. They have also been found in Mexico, but it is Jamaica that has the longest history, having been in continuous production since the tree was identified in about the year 1509. The name Pimento originated from the Spanish word "pimienta" which meant ‘peppercorn’. To most English-speaking people the tree is called "pimento" and the berries "allspice". The name allspice originated from the widespread n...
