Coffee-Based Recipes: Let's look at the best of coffee based recipes.
Nothing like a whiff of freshly brewed coffee to lift up the mood! With monsoons in full swing, it is just the time to snuggle up in a comfy sofa by the window, watch the rains and sip some coffee. If that's not enough coffee kick for you, how about using this aromatic ingredient to whip up some sinful treats Coffee has long contributed to creating some of the most cherished and easy coffee recipes of all time. It does have a strong flavour, but if used tactically along with a handful of other ingredients, can work wonders. Take the classic Italian dessert Tiramisu for example. You can't help but 'pick it up' and dig in! Or a freshly made coffee cake with cream cheese frosting. It's divine!
Though it is a popular ingredient for desserts and baking, you can also use coffee in marinades, salad dressings, sauces, salsas etc, to lend in a twist. We all know that it pairs magically with chocolate and alcohol, but it also blends well with fruits and berries such as peaches, blueberries, blackberries, plums and apricots, and cheese. It is all about hitting that right flavour note. Using instant coffee is a quick and easy way, but most cooks like to use the ground beans to freshly brew the liquor before using it in the recipes. You can take your pick. From the classic tiramisu and coffee walnut cake, to interesting twists like coffee marinated mutton chops and coffee waffles - we have it all, including coffee-based cocktails to start up a party at home.
