>>22007121That depends, are you Vietnamese?
>>22007123We do it in southern Italy, too.>>22007121I've not had it in thirty years. My mum used to make it when I was a kid to get "cream" on top of the coffee and she said her parents did it in the post was period because milk wasn't always available but everyone had chickens so it was an adaptation born of necessity. This is the same reason semifreddo exists IE egg ice cream. There's no cream in it. It's just egg.Beat yolk and sugar to uniform pale yellow. Add freshly brewed coffee a drop at a time then stream in the rest once the yolk is tempered. Serve immediately.
>>22007123No I'm European and it's not a thing in my country. I heard people in Vietnam do it a few years ago so decided to try it myself and now I prefer it over milk/cream. Also, I usually don't have breakfast so having the whites by themselves + 2 yolks in my coffee makes me feel like I at least have sort of a light liquid breakfast I guess. Anyways, I recommend all anons on this board to try it and see for themselves how good it is. Just make sure to separate well and make sure the temperature isn't boiling hot, you obviously don't want cooked yolk in your coffee. Also as a bonus coffee tip I always add some salt to mine. People do it at restaurants, it's a legit flavor enhancer most people don't know about.
>>22007121this way >>22007131,sounds really good, I'd try it for sure.
>>22007131>This is the same reason semifreddo exists IE egg ice cream. There's no cream in it. It's just egg.To be clear, modern versions add cream and often even omit egg due to the modern fear of raw egg but traditional versions are basically meringue with pâte à bombe folded into it and frozen, the syrup used to make both usually being infused in some way (lemon, coffee, etc).>>22007138It's kinda heavy, to be fair, but as it's done with moka-brewed coffee, it's meant to be consumed in small quantities, anyway.Is the Vietnamese one made with milk? The pictures I've seen of it look very light coloured in comparison to what I'm familiar with.
YAY
>>22007121Do you like predictable shitting?
>>22007185Raw egg does not give me the shits anon, maybe your unhealthy lardass is like that?>>22007178Woooh! glad there are more egg yolk coffee enjoyers on this board!!!
Yay
