Benefits of Coffee

Researchers from the University of Scranton released on August 29, 2005 that coffee is the No. 1 source of antioxidants in the American diet. Black tea is the second. Antioxidants are substances or nutrients in foods that can prevent or slow oxidative damage to our body. When our cells utilize oxygen, they naturally produce free radicals (by-products) which can cause damage to other cells. Antioxidants act as "free radical scavengers" and hence prevent and repair damage inflicted by these free radicals. Fruits and vegetables are hailed as the richest sources of antioxidants, but this study shows that coffee is the main source from which most Americans get their antioxidants. Both caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee appear to provide similar amounts of antioxidants.

World’s Rarest Coffee Brews - Norwegian Egg Coffee

To most people, it is quite unusual to brew coffee with an egg in it. However, this is a traditional Norwegian method for making coffee.

How to make it? First, you have to break a single
egg and mix the egg with a half a cup of water (about 120 ml) in a slow heated saucepan. Then, add a cup of ground coffee with six cups of boiling water (about 1.5 liter) and leave it to boil in slow heat for about 3-4 minutes. After that, add a half cup of very cold water and let it steep for another 9 minutes before serving.

I bet you would expect a coffee with a mixture of egg floating in it. What's unusual about this coffee is that, you will get a rich, clear coffee. This is due to the fact that the egg protein binds with the ground coffee and it settles the grounds, providing the coffee with the richness in its taste. This is when a half cup of very cold water is added suddenly to the mixture.

Note that there are many variations in making the Norwegian Egg Coffee. Some people may even use the egg together with the shell (broken up). In this case, the coffee must be carefully strained to remove pieces of egg shell. Some people may use only the egg whites. In any cases, whichever method you use, the result will still be the same, i.e. clear and rich coffee.
