@itsangusnguyen: ☕🇻🇳 VIETNAMESE COFFEE | CÀ PHÊ SỮA ĐÁ If you are looking for a phin filter, I recommend going to your local vietnamese/asian grocery to buy one, but if you must order one here is a link to the filter: https://link.amazon/B080KIMLG Same thing for the Trung Nguyen Coffee: https://link.amazon/B09pLaDU2 Vietnamese coffee isn't just coffee with condensed milk! There's a whole world of history, culture and science behind that deliciously strong cup of cà phê sữa đá! Today we're making traditional Vietnamese iced coffee using a phin filter, that little metal brewing device that sits right on top of your cup and slowly drips rich, concentrated coffee into sweetened condensed milk. And while we wait for those beautiful little drops, let's talk COFFEE BEANS! 🤓 ☕ ROBUSTA VS. ARABICA Most North American coffee drinkers are familiar with Arabica beans, known for their smoother, often fruitier and more acidic flavour profiles. Vietnam, however, is the world's largest producer of Robusta coffee! Robusta beans generally have nearly TWICE the caffeine of Arabica, with a bolder, earthier, more bitter flavour and fuller body. That intensity makes them PERFECT for balancing the sweetness of condensed milk! 🇻🇳 BUT WHAT ABOUT CAFÉ DU MONDE? Here's a fascinating piece of Vietnamese immigrant history! That iconic yellow can of Café du Monde coffee from New Orleans is practically synonymous with Vietnamese coffee in North America, but it's actually an American coffee brand! Following the Vietnam War, Vietnamese refugees discovered that its blend of coffee and roasted chicory root had a deep, earthy flavour reminiscent of the Robusta coffee they knew back home. It became a beloved staple in Vietnamese immigrant households and restaurants, even though chicory isn't traditionally an ingredient in Vietnamese coffee! ❤️ BACK TO OUR CÀ PHÊ SỮA ĐÁ! Once our phin finishes dripping, give that beautiful coffee and condensed milk a good stir! You can enjoy it hot as cà phê sữa nóng, but personally? NOTHING beats pouring it into a big glass packed with ice! Strong, creamy, sweet, refreshing and unmistakably Vietnamese! Are you TEAM HOT or TEAM ICED? 🧊 #VietnameseCoffee #CaPheSuaDa #VietnameseFood #RobustaCoffee #CoffeeEducation
