  • Apparently Dalgona Coffee is the new internet craze. It's equal parts instant coffee granules, sugar and hot water, whisked for a couple of minutes and it goes weirdly frothy. Texture-wise it's a bit like a cross between nicely foamed milk and angel delight. You then spoon it on top of hot or cold milk. I tried making it and it does work, but the end result is just a super-bitter, slightly sweetened, not-very-nice coffee foam. It's drinkable with enough milk, and might work as an interesting ingredient (in a semifreddo maybe), but generally worth giving a miss.

  • I tried this today with Lavazza instant, made a mess, didn't froth. Tried again with mother-in-law's Lyons, frothed, but results just as you describe. Will not bother again.
