1. What is salted coffee? Why is it called salt coffee?
The taste of salted coffee is said to have originated from a garden cafe on Nguyen Luong Bang Street in Hue. Until now, there is not too much information about the true origin of this coffee.
The nature of coffee is bitter, depending on the method of preparation or quality of coffee, the bitterness will have different concentrations, but certainly will not disappear. So when making coffee, we need to soften them with ingredients such as milk, sugar, cream or salt.
It is a fact that sodium – the main component of salt, has the ability to neutralize bitterness. This happens because the taste buds will respond more strongly to salty rather than bitter tastes. Therefore, using salt may be even more effective in masking the bitterness of coffee than sugar. In addition, it also increases the available strength of the coffee by one level.
