Hot Coffee Latte Food

CAFE LATTE

Steps:

• Heat milk in a saucepan set over medium-low heat. Whisk briskly with a wire whisk to create foam. Brew espresso and pour into 4 cups. Pour in milk, holding back the foam with a spoon. Spoon foam over the top.

HOW TO MAKE A CAFE LATTE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Place the water into the boiler of your espresso machine.
• Put the coffee into the portafilter.
• Tamp (press) the coffee down using a tamper. Do this 2 to 3 times to make sure the grounds are packed tightly.
• Place the portafilter into your espresso machine's group head and lock it in place by turning it to the right.
• Place a latte cup (or the glass carafe that came with your espresso machine) under the group head and pull the shot for 25 to 30 seconds. (Typically, there is a lever, switch, or button to start this process.)
• Once the shot is pulled , add the flavored syrup, if using.
• Place the milk into either a glass measuring cup or a small metal pitcher.
• Insert the steam wand into the container with the milk, just under the surface.
• Engage the steam wand on your espresso machine. (You may need to read your espresso machine's manual for this, as each espresso maker is a little different.)
• Make sure to keep the tip of the wand toward the side of the container. This will create a vortex with the milk.
• Move the container higher, lower, closer, then further so that the steam wand can incorporate the air into the milk, making the foam. The bubbles should get smaller and smaller as you do this.
• Once the milk has foamed to double its size, turn off the steam wand.
• Use a spoon to retain the microbubbles on top of the steamed milk and pour the bottom 2/3 of the steamed milk into the latte cup.
• Top the latte with the remaining bubbles by pouring or spooning them onto the drink.
• Serve and enjoy.

HOT COFFEE LATTE RECIPE

Steps:

• To begin making Hot Coffee Latte Recipe, in a large jar with leak-proof lid, add milk and shake vigorously for about 1 minute or two.
• Open the lid and microwave the jar on a high power for 2 minutes. Make sure the container has space for the milk to foam up.
• In a big mug, add the espresso in equal quantity and hold the mug in a tilted position. Keep adding the frothed milk into one cup from the mug's edge in a steady pattern till the cup is full such that it forms a coffee art on top.
• You can optionally sprinkle with a dash of coa powder on top.
• Serve Hot Coffee Latte Recipe with Whole Wheat Apple Muffins Recipe or a Spiced Saffron & Coconut Pumpkin Cake Recipe for a rainy evening.

HOT HAZELNUT CHOCOLATE-TOFFEE LATTE

Steps:

• Put the hot coffee and some Chocolate-Toffee Syrup in a large mug and mix until combined. Stir in the hot milk, top with some whipped cream and drizzle with more syrup, if desired.
• Cook the sugar in a medium, heavy saucepan over medium heat, undisturbed, until it begins to melt, then continue to cook, stirring slowly with a fork, until melted and pale golden. Continue to cook, swirling the pan, until the sugar is a deep golden caramel.
• Remove from the heat and carefully add the warm cream down side of pan (the mixture will bubble and steam vigorously), return the caramel to the heat, add the chocolate and salt and stir until smooth. Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
• Yield: about 1 1/2 cups
