Ended The Ultimate Egg Dish Challenge

[alinas2010]

I have a weird one. It does not look appetizing, but I swear by it. There is some science going on that makes this a better cup of coffee.

Egg coffee; originally a Scandinavian recipe meant to cut the bitterness of poor quality coffee. This came from a book full of old homesteading recipes at my grandparents house. It didn’t have measurements, so these are roughly the measurements I use for my 2 - 3 cups coffee.

• 1 egg
• A couple table spoons to 1/4 cup ground coffee give or take - depending on how strong, (more than that and consider another egg).
• 3-5 cups water to boil and another 1/2 cup or so of cold water

Bring the 3-5 cups water to a boil on the stove.

In a bowl, mix the egg with the coffee grounds, (you can include the shell if you’d like) until you have a “muddy” mixture. You can add this mixture into cheesecloth for easy clean up if you want, but I don’t.

Add the mixture to the boiling water and continue to boil for at least 4 mins or until water is desired darkness.

The coffee grounds/egg mixture will congeal and can be skimmed off the top and discarded when your water reaches the desired darkness.

When you finish boiling, add in the 1/2 cup cold water and let sit a couple minutes so the cold water pushes any remaining grounds to the bottom of the pan.

Pour yourself a cup and enjoy! It’s the smoothest coffee ever!

That certainly sounds interesting.
