What is an Affogato coffee?

  • Rise and shine my MF Products Blog readers, it’s Saturday morning and I already know some you have your music blaring and your MF Coffee brewing. There’s nothing better than a delicious cup of MF Coffee in the morning and today, we’re looking to switch things up from your typical espresso or flat white in the morning. Last week we received an email from an MF Product fan who asked for us to talk about different coffee recipes, their origin and how they’re made. We thought it was a great idea and to start us off on this series we will be talking about the Affogato Coffee. So, sit back and relax and we delve into another wonderful recipe.

The affogato is a hot and cold delicacy available on many specialty coffee shop menus, as well as in restaurants. The affogato is a dessert that can be made with two core ingredients: vanilla ice cream and espresso brewed MF Coffee. Originally invented in Italy, the word “affogato” literally translates as “drowned” in English. This is humorously fitting, as the affogato is no more than a scoop of ice cream “drowned” in a waterfall of hot brewed MFCoffee.

The dessert is such a phenomenon there’s even debates as to how one should consume this treat, some argue it should melt so it can be served as a beverage others argue that it should be eaten with a spoon instantly after the MF Coffee is poured on top.

So, we know about the recipes origins, but I’m now sure all of you are bursting to find out how it’s made well here it is.

Ingredients:

 

-          1 shot of MF Coffee espresso

 

-          1 scoop of vanilla ice cream

 

-          1 amaretti biscuit


Method:

1)      Brew a shot of MF Coffee espresso

2)      Add a scoop (or two!) of ice cream into a bowl

3)      Pour over your shot of coffee

4)      Crumble your biscuit and sprinkle over the top


Quick. Easy. Tasty. It’s the affogato coffee and it’s a MF favourite. Thanks for reading.

Benefits of nutmeg

Good morning my MF Products Blog readers, today we’re going to be looking at the benefits of MF Nutmeg . Nutmeg is popularly known as Jatiphal and Jaiphal in India. It’s one of the oldest spices, like pepper and clove and it’s been cultivated for over 1000 years. Nutmeg is a spice made from the seed of Myristica fragrans, a tropical tree that is native to the Banda island of Indonesia but also commonly grown in the Caribbean and other tropical areas of the world such as the St John Parish in Jamaica. When it comes to the actual characteristics, the nutmeg seed is oval-shaped, about an inch long, slightly wrinkled, dark brown on the outside and light brown on the inside. For centuries nutmeg has been treasured for its flavour, aroma, and medicinal properties throughout the world.   In regard to MF Nutmegs taste, it’s something quite extraordinary. It possesses this sweet, spicy yet woody sensation. It’s almost as if Christmas comes early with MF Nutmeg. Did you know nutmeg has cooling
