For many white-collar workers, they like to have a cup of coffee at Starbucks. As we all know, coffee is made from roasted coffee beans. However, in Japan, garlic coffee is made from garlic instead of coffee beans. I don't know what garlic coffee will taste like?
According to Kyodo news agency, the appearance and taste of this "garlic coffee" is the same as coffee, but the raw material is 100% garlic produced in Aomori County, Japan. It is understood that the "garlic coffee" developed by Jizhi, xiam2, in the southern town of the county, has become a topic since it was released in January this year. "It could be the world's first," he said. Because it does not contain caffeine, it can be consumed by people who want to drink coffee at night as well as pregnant women. '
It is reported that Xiaping used to operate coffee shops in BAHU City, Qingsen county. About 30 years ago, he burned his steak and garlic for his attentive reception. When he smashed the burnt garlic with a spoon and rushed it into hot water for drinking, he was surprised to find that it had a 'coffee like' bitter taste.
After Xiaping retired, he wanted to let more people know the taste of garlic coffee and made repeated research to realize commercialization. He adjusted the baking method and temperature, after repeated exploration, and finally made a satisfactory 'coffee' about 5 years ago. The method is to bake the garlic in an electric furnace until the skin is completely black, then bake it at a lower temperature until the inside is amber, cool it until it is not scalded, grind it into powder and filter it out. Xiaping obtained a patent in 2015 and opened a studio in Yanshou county.
Garlic has a warming effect, so people with cold body and anemia are also suitable for drinking. It is said that although it has garlic flavor, it does not need to worry about bad breath after drinking because of long-term heating.
At present, the coffee is only sold in two local specialty stores in Qingsen County, but other stores also want to sell it. Xia Ping confidently said: 'if people say & lsquo; surprised & rsquo; after drinking, I will be very happy. Although it's hard in age, it will continue to be made as long as the body allows. '
