Vietnamese Egg Coffee (Ca Phe Trung) – Creamy & Flavorful Coffee with Egg Yolk

October 9, 2017 By Victoria

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

For over 70 years, Vietnamese Egg Coffee has brought the special mesmerizing beauty of coffee to not only the local but the whole world of travelers too. Invented by a Metropole chef in the last century, this drink has become so popular now that most travelers would come back for more.

Vietnamese Egg Yolk Coffee

There are many ways to blend this drink, but the most original one was what most people sought to achieve. The main ingredients are just Vietnamese Robusta coffee filtered in Vietnamese “Phin”, sweet condensed milk, and egg yolk.

The whole point here is to concoct the drink with egg as a substitution to the normal cream and/or milk without the egg fume. Mostly you would have removed all the egg white, eye, and all gel layer to keep the egg smell away. Beat the egg with a hand mixer or blender over the high speed at the desired time would help too. Extra additive like salt, lime juice, sugar, honey, or cream of tartar are many of the ingredients use in baking to counter egg smell. Also, the temperature tends to lessen the smell and keep the foam up too, that’s why back in the day before mixer arrives in Vietnam, they mostly serve hot egg coffee. Now, the varieties are there to wonder.
