How to make the Roman Holiday coffee cocktail

Today we will be discussing the ‘roman holiday’ cocktail which is an undated version on the original ‘Jungle Bird’.

Another liqueur added is Campari and it’s tinges of orange shine through the beverage to establish a pleasant yet alternative taste. After that, the ‘roman holiday consists of pineapple juice, lime juice, demerara syrup and cold-brew MF Coffee .

  Today’s Tuesday so I’m sure many of you are already aware that it’s blog time with the MF Products team. As always, we hope you guys have had a great start to the week because we certainly have after trying a new pastry called ‘monkey bread. The origin of the term "monkey bread" comes from the pastry being a finger food in which the consumer would pick apart the bread piece by piece as a monkey would. Dating back to the 1880s, in Hungarian literature, Hungarian immigrants would’ve brought this dish with them when they arrived in America and began introducing it into the country's food a landscape where Hungarian and Hungarian Jewish bakeries would eventually begin selling it in the mid-twentieth century. I know many of you are now starving for some monkey bread so here is how to make it the MF way: Ingredients: -             1 cup (250ml) of milk -           2 tablespoons of MF Instant Coffee granules -           320g of unsalted butter, chopped, plus extra melted to

How to make banana loaf

  Good afternoon all you bakery lovers. Today we will be talking about banana bread. At the MF Headquarters, we decided to make a banana loaf and we were mesmerised at how much impact the implementation of our MF Cinnamon and Nutmeg had on the taste of the bread. In a climate where it’s constantly raining and riddled with freezing conditions, we often find ourselves stuck in the house with nothing to do and making banana bread could be a perfect way to entertain ourselves during the day. Firstly, let’s look at the history of banana read, where did it actually come from? It wasn’t until the 1900s that bananas were available in the united states as a result of the antithetical climate to southeast Asia. Once basic refrigeration was improved the transportation of bananas increased and they became more readily available to American consumers. Bananas then became incorporated into baking during the 1930s as a result of the great depression and an increase in baking soda and powder mass prod

How to make Pumpkin Pie

Good evening everyone, before we get into the blog, the MF Team would like to hope you’ve all had an excellent start to your week. If you haven’t, no worries, this recipe that we have for you will put a smile on your face very very soon! For the Americans who read our blogs, I’m sure your mouths are already drooling at what we’re presenting to you with today and rightfully so, this dessert has a spiced pumpkin-based custard filling with quite a history that will leave you pleasantly surprised. The pumpkin is native to the continent of North America, it was an early export to France and from there it was introduced to Tudor England as the flesh of the "pompion".  Quickly, it was accepted as pie filler however during the seventeenth century, pumpkin made by early American colonists were more likely to be made into a savoury soup than a sweet custard in a crust. 200 years later, pumpkin pie became a regular addition to Thanksgiving dinner, and it was said that the pilgrims of t

What's the deal with canned coffee in Japan?

Good morning my fellow MF Products Blog readers, we truly hope you’ve started your morning well with a cup of MF Coffee. We can only hope. Today we will be looking at a topic slightly different to our usual content. Coffee culture resides outside of just the UK and USA and it didn’t take us long to find interesting customs and normalities in different countries such as the use of canned coffee in vending machines in Japan. In Japan, you can have coffee canned hot, cold, ground, or even in bean form and it’s all claimed from the clicking of a couple of buttons. For those who have been to Tokyo, I’m sure you would all understand the phenomenon that surrounds this vending machine culture. Every step you take, every corner, there seems to be a vending machine with what you desire right there, at your disposal. Canned coffee was conceived in Japan back in the 1960s and regarded as a quick and suitable way to start the day. Ueshima Coffee Company is considered to be one of the pioneers of t

The origins of nutmeg part 1

Following the breakthrough on one of our products at MF Products , the MF Team have decided to look at the origins of MF Nutmeg . We have done a lot of content on what you can do with MF Nutmeg however we’ve never discussed the history of this spectacular spice and how it even became so prominent in the world today. So, without further ado let’s get into it. Scientifically, nutmeg is known as Myristica Fragrans and the tree is said to have originated in Banda, one of the spice islands of Indonesia. It has also been said that the word nutmeg came from the Latin word ‘nux’ which meant nut and muscat which meant musky. Historically, nutmeg has had rather a violent history with wars being waged over the high-value spice. In 1600, the Dutch went to the Banda islands then massacred and enslaved the inhabitants for control over production supply. After several negotiations and decades, the Dutch gave up control in world war two. So, how did such a small little spice cause so much troub
