FAQS
How do I make Dalgona coffee step by step?
To make Dalgona coffee, start by combining 2 tablespoons of instant coffee, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 2 tablespoons of boiling water in a bowl. Whisk the mixture vigorously until soft peaks form. In a separate glass, pour 0.5 cup of milk (hot or cold), then spoon the whipped coffee mixture over the milk. Stir before drinking for a deliciously creamy coffee experience.
Is Dalgona coffee suitable for a vegan diet?
Traditional Dalgona coffee is not vegan due to the use of milk. However, you can easily make it vegan by substituting regular milk with plant-based alternatives like almond milk, oat milk, or soy milk. This way, you can enjoy a creamy and frothy Dalgona coffee while adhering to your vegan dietary preferences.
What can I use instead of castor sugar in Dalgona coffee?
If you don't have castor sugar, you can use regular granulated white sugar as a substitute in your Dalgona coffee recipe. Alternatively, you can try using brown sugar for a richer flavor or even a sugar substitute like stevia or erythritol, keeping in mind that the texture may vary slightly.
How should I store leftover Dalgona coffee?
Dalgona coffee is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftover whipped coffee mixture, you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. When ready to use, simply re-whip it briefly before serving over fresh milk. However, keep in mind that the texture may not be as fluffy as when freshly made.
What are some great pairings for Dalgona coffee?
Dalgona coffee pairs wonderfully with a variety of snacks and desserts. Consider enjoying it with a slice of chocolate cake, cookies, or even a light pastry. For a more savory option, try it with a buttery croissant or a slice of toast topped with avocado. The creamy coffee complements both sweet and savory flavors beautifully.
