In such a cold and freezing season, I believe many people, like Qianjie, want to sit in the sun with a cup of hot coffee in their hands every day and slowly taste it. It's so comfortable.

If you talk about the most popular hot coffee in winter, you have to mention various specialty lattes with rich sweetness factors, such as chocolate-flavored mocha coffee, Spanish latte containing condensed milk, or apple cinnamon latte once reproduced on Front Street. Latte... every one can be said to be sweet and overflowing. However, in the past two years, people have begun to brainstorm and put many "irrelevant" ingredients into coffee, such as the salty cheese latte to be made today on Qianjie.

Why does latte add cheese?

A good cup of latte should be a perfect blend of concentrated and milk. The intensity and mellow taste of the coffee are in an ideal balance with the silky and sweet taste of the milk. With the background of milk, concentrated coffee can display its own excellent flavor, allowing people to feel the lasting aroma of coffee in their mouths after drinking it.

Cheese (cheese) has a strong taste and creamy aroma, which not only enhances the mellow degree of the coffee, but also conforms to the concentrated sweet flavor. Its unique salty flavor also brings extra layers to the entire cup of latte., making the taste of coffee more three-dimensional.

material preparation

If you search for 'cheese' on the shopping platform, you will find that there are many different options, so we just need to consider turning it into milk coffee. Based on this, Front Street recommends using cheese slices directly, which can allow it to melt into lattes more quickly.

In addition, in order to present the "salty taste" of the cheese, we can add a small amount of sea salt, but considering that the cheese slices themselves also have a slight salty taste, Qianjie adds condensed milk to the milk to neutralize the salty taste of the cheese.

In selecting coffee bases, Qianjie noticed three different methods, namely freeze-dried powder, espresso, and mocha pot coffee. Among the three, the espresso machine has the best extraction conditions and can be more finely adjusted, and the concentrate produced will show a richer aroma and mellow feeling; the mocha pot has lower pressure, and the concentrated quality is second. Due to the raw material problems and the pre-manufacturing process, the aroma and taste of the freeze-dried powder are not as good as the first two.

It is recommended to use medium-to-deep roasted coffee beans to make salty cheese lattes. Here, we choose the Qianjie Boutique Italian blend. This is an Italian formula made from two major producing areas of Brazil and Colombia. The medium-to-deep baking not only highlights the balanced taste of Brazil and the aroma of roasted nuts, but also maximizes the dark chocolate aroma of Colombian coffee. When extracted into Italian concentrate and encountered with milk, the bitter taste will instantly transform into milk chocolate. Smooth.

Salt cheese latte making

Ingredients: cheese slices, espresso, condensed milk, fresh milk, sea salt

Step 1: First tear or cut a piece of cheese, take half of it and place it in a concentrated cup (you can sprinkle with sea salt or salt);

Step 2: Pour 240g of fresh milk and 10g of condensed milk into the milk vat;

Step 3: Use 20g of Qianjie Premium Italian Mix and extract 40g in 28 seconds;

Step 4: Wash the milk together while extracting coffee. The thickness of the milk foam is controlled to 0.5cm and the temperature is 55 ° C;

Step 5: Quickly stir the coffee liquor and cheese slices evenly. Make sure to stir a few more times to melt all the cheese. Then blend the hot milk and coffee to make a simple pattern, and it's done.

You can also choose not to pull the flowers, blend until 8 minutes full, scoop out the white milk foam with a spoon and gently place it on the latte, and finally inject all the remaining milk from the center.

The salty cheese latte produced in this way tastes very rich. The salty aroma of cheese, the sweetness of hot milk, and the caramel and dark chocolate-like mellow flavors brought by the concentrated combination of Qianjie Boutique Italian style form a special taste in the mouth. Experience.
