I did take a barista course in the past at a Vietnamese culinary school, and the instructor told me that to sterilize eggs, you can boil them for around 30s-1m in 70-degree-Celsius water, which is hot enough to kill the bacteria, esp. salmonella, without cooking the eggs. Then crack it open, and it would be safe to use the egg yolk for your egg coffee now. Updated: FYI the context I used is in Vietnam, not a first world’s country, so extra carefulness is reasonable. The risk of salmonella infection is posed when you crack the eggshells: the bacteria may infect the inner matter, especially if you separate the egg yolk by transferring it back and forth between the two halves of the cracked open shell. So pasteurizing the outer surface becomes necessary. How about the pathogens that exist inside the eggs before cracking? That’s your own risk to take when deciding to have raw eggs then.

[@ChrissieSM]

If you beat the egg first, then add the hot coffee should be sufficient. After all, home made mayonnaise is made with raw egg, as is steak tartare.

[@mercedesvelasquez8781]

This here because I ran out of mayonnaise so made home made mayonnaise and I am still alive doing well no sickness​@@ChrissieSM

[@TheMongooseOfDoom]

That is complete bs. The inside of the egg will still be completely cold after just 1 m in 70C water. Salmonella are killed at 65C, which is also the temperature at which an egg yolk sets. Ergo, you cannot sterilize an egg without cooking it through. The obvious implication is, by the way, that any runny egg is just as (un)safe as a raw egg. In Germany, Salmonella are very rare and if you buy high quality ("organic") eggs, they are basically unheard of.

[@rosaliac.386]

Exactly this. Cuz the dangerous part is NOT the raw egg, it's the bacteria that's grown on the shell since they've been washed. The raw egg only becomes dangerous by making contact with the outside of the shell. By boiling it shortly, you're killing all the bad stuff that might make you sick! (Unless it's a bad egg, bad eggs will make you sick)

[@JustSaralius]

That would only sterilize the outside though. The inside can still carry pathogens.

[@blarfroer8066]

The funny thing about a German rating Vietnamese coffee is that East Germany paid Vietnam to ramp up its coffee production, and that is one of the main reasons why Vietnam is the second biggest producer of coffee today.

About the egg coffee: It's required that chickens get vaccinated against salmonella in Germany (plus there's some additional safeguards), so while raw egg is never 100% safe, the likelihood that you get sick from them here is very, very low ^^

[@ReyOfLight]

Uyen, you really don't need to be afraid of raw eggs here in Europe, at least not in Western Europe or the Nordic countries. The poultry and egg industry is highly regulated with strict requirements on how the hens/chickens are kept (space, cleanliness etc), many birds are also vaccinated along with frequent testing. If there's an outbreak, the place gets put under quarantine and any eggs or meat from that farm will be recalled due to possible exposure to Salmonella. Because of the high standards in how the birds are kept (hygiene) which is part of the preventative measures against Salmonella, vaccine and frequent testing, salmonella recalls are pretty few and far between, and when they do happen and there's batches of eggs from the affected Eggery in the stores, stores are quick to recall and information hits the newspapers and other information sources so people can check their eggs and go get a refund if they got eggs from the affected batch in the affected time frame. It's extremely rare for people here to actually come down with Salmonella from eggs

We make the "egg coffee" in Italy too! But we usually use just sugar, without the honey. It was my late father's favourite. We call it "uovo sbattuto col caffè" or "caffè con uovo sbattuto" (literally: beaten egg with coffee or coffee with beaten egg). You drink it for breakfast or as a snack, in the afternoon, sometimes with some cookies. I have to say it was very popular, until some years ago. I don't know how many people still make it, today, but I definitely consider it a sweet treat, not really a drink. My favourite Vietnamese drink would be, I think, the first one, the peach tea. Maybe because peach tea is very popular, in Italy, and I make it quite often, steeping slices of fresh peaches in the tea and refrigerating it to drink (and eat the peaches) during hot summer days. I'm sorry to say that my least favourite would be the coffee with condensed milk: I just hate sweet, milky coffee!

[@hannahk1306]

Your green tea is only bitter because you make it with boiling water - the recommended temperature is 70° for green tea and 100° (boiling) for black tea. I don't have a fancy temperature controlled kettle, so when I'm making green tea I just switch it off before it boils (listen for the sound changing) or let the water cool down before pouring. Boba (or bubble) tea has become quite popular in the UK, especially amongst the younger generations, so you should be able to find some to try if you come here. The fruity ones are the most popular, but I think you can get milk tea too. Some vocab that you were struggling with (please comment any I've missed): - the actual corn pieces are called kernels - the middle bit of the corn is the cob - the whole thing served as it comes (usually without the leaves) we'd call corn on the cob - getting bits out of liquid using a cloth or mesh is straining - getting bits or lumps out of dry ingredients (like flour) is sifting Hope that's helpful 😊

Ohhhhh! I was surprised by their shape, color & juiciness, but there are so many citrus variations I figured it was a different kind of kumquat (had them in SF Chinatown in February, so delicious & sweet, confidently bought a big bag in Montana, oh no terrible yucky nasty! Bitter little tricksters when they aren’t properly ripe! If you live where you get ripe fruit, rejoice!). I thought calamansi were much bigger!

11:19 I love when you can tell Uyen was raised country. There’s no way to get field corn in the big cities, I’m sure, other than robbing a corn field, even in one of the USA’s most rural places, I have no idea how to buy field corn. Also, try if you can, just once, to get pick your own sweet corn, have someone at home boiling water, have a passenger to shuck and de-silk, and give it a few mins in the boiling water the minute you get it home. You’ll hate most other corn on the cob for the rest of your life, but you’ll know the purest food joy on earth. Honestly, to the unknown people who took hand engineered maize into sweet corn, huzzah!!! We salute you!

[@adamengelhart5159]

Here's my favorite way. I'd be interested to know what you think: 1. Preheat your oven to 500 °F (260 °C, gas mark 10, Stufe 6-7). Yes, that *is* extremely hot. 2. Remove any loose leaves or silk from your corn, but don't shuck it. 3. Cook the corn for 40 minutes. 4. Serve immediately, shucking and buttering the corn at the table. Don't shuck the corn or remove the silk ahead of time--the recipe depends on having the corn tightly wrapped in the husks to retain the moisture. The silk comes off much more easily after you've cooked it, and leaving the husk on the corn stops it from burning up in the oven. The biggest downsides are 1) having to redline your oven during corn season (the hottest part of the year) and 2) having to clean up little bits of husk that break off as you shuck the corn before you eat it. These are pretty easy to mitigate with good ventilation and cleaning, though, and it's well worth it.

german BF is such a sweetheart :”3 and the egg coffee thing honestly looked super good though? i definitely wanna try it now too! reminds me a bit of that whiskey sour with egg recipe; sounds weird on paper but is super delicious when you drink it

[@standdownrobots_ihaveoldglory]

I just realized that all my animosity toward eggnog & egg based drinks is actually just me hating nutmeg. Used in very light, salt-like quantities, nutmeg is a great flavor enhancer, but as a taste on its own, I hate it. Now that I think on it, I drink an Ensure (nutritional drink for old & ill people who can’t eat enough), that’s wayyyy thicker & icker than a little egg yolk lol. I get farm eggs & clean them thoroughly before using, I’m not too worried about my eggs.

[@noahsarkhive4482]

@@standdownrobots_ihaveoldglory do you clean the eggs right before usage or like...when you buy them n just let them sit around after? Cause you shouldn't clean eggs (at least not with water etc, but just a brush or some cloth) it takes away their protective layer and makes them more susceptible to salmonella. That said- the sour whiskey egg combo is not thick at all. It is very light with just a hit of creaminess, since the egg white is Whipped up into a light foam. Maybe give it a go if you ever come across it :)

I'm Canto, but I absolutely LOVE iced Vietnamese coffee for summer and warm corn milk for winter! thanks for showing us how to make them ;)

Vietnamese coffee is the best coffee in the world, in my humble opinion. Thank you for sharing! They all sound delicious. I am keen to try the black bean one. We have a red bean soup drink variation that I love so I think black bean would be right up my street.

That peach tea drink looks awesome, minus the sugar part. I will try that.

[@Sh4TieL]

Maybe some vietnamese drink experts can help: I once had a really good drink at a pho restaurant in Germany (that unfortunatly closed) and I never got it in any other vietnamese restaurant, so I'm not sure if it's an authentic vietnamese drink and what it's called. It was with salty (!) lemons/lime, soda and sugar (a version with normal lime/lemons and a lot of sugar I often see on the menu though).

[@doodahgurlie]

That's a very popular Vietnamese drink growing up. It's a salted preserved lime drink (like a natural Gatorade) called "chanh muoi".

[@moonyu189]

The salty lemon is very easy to do if you wanna try it. You buy a bunch of lemons, then put those in a container, don't peel, then put salt in, one layer of salt one layer of lemon. Also, we mostly use lime or kumquat After filling up your container, leave it in a cool place for a month until the water comes out and the skin turns black, then you know it is ready.

I want to try all the things!! I've been smitten by the Vietnamese culture ever since the first time I tried my first bowl of Pho! When using an electric mixer the heat from the blades actually kills the salmonella from the egg yolk. It's not cooking it enough to make scrambled eggs it's cooking in enough that it is still technically raw. So it's creamy like a soft-boiled yolk. I'm pretty sure that's how custard is made. Tell German boyfriend I said he's a Hoot "n" holler "n" a half!

Edit: I've just verified it and kogel-mogel is made only from yolks, not whole eggs. But still it is very similar to yours! I'm from Poland. My mum used to make a kogel-mogel, which is the same mixture you added to your raw-eggs coffee. It's just raw eggs mixed with sugar. Often my mum ate that as a solo dessert, but sometimes she add it on the top of the coffee. That's interesting how these two very different cultures and cuisines have the same kogel-mogel thing! That's awesome ❤️

[@unilady5225]

Ooo that's interesting. In Poland we have a desert called "Kogiel mogel" and it's basically Vietnamese egg coffee but without coffee. Also, you can make raw egg safe to eat by boiling it a liitle

[@ChrissieSM]

When I was a child in France, we had chocolate milk mixed with egg. Very nice in winter.

[@HannahBeWhitty]

Living for this video!!! I can’t wait to try to make some of these at home.

[@vukkulvar9769]

Eggnog is "safe" because the two versions are sterilized. The alcoholic version is sterilized if there's a high enough alcohol concentration. The non-alcoholic version is sterilized by being cooked (it's custard with spices and diluted with milk). You can always use the cooked version, replacing some of the milk with alcohol, to make a safe eggnog. I assume you could fluff up an unsweetened custard to make safe vietnamese coffee.

[@LinnieAlexis]

Where I live we call what uyen made "eggedosis", and we drink it around christmas. Raw egg and sugar, and beat the heck out of it. Never have I ever heard of anyone getting salmonella after.

[@LinnieAlexis]

But! We don't wash the eggs, so they're safer.

[@elirinamk2051]

​​@@LinnieAlexis ? I would've assumed that it's saver if you wash the egg?? I always wash the eggs when I want to consume them raw... 🤔

[@ixchelkali]

​@@LinnieAlexis, I keep seeing Europeans saying that their eggs are safer because they don't wash them, but washing the eggs is not the reason why American eggs aren't safe to eat raw. Thanks to large industrial egg production, many (if not most) hens have salmonella in their ovaducts, so the eggs already have salmonella inside when the egg is laid. Even super clean home flocks often have salmonella, because the eggs from hatcheries also have salmonella, so chicks are born with it. Many years ago now, when widespread salmonella became a problem, the government food safety regulation agencies decided it would be better to start requiring stores that sell eggs to refrigerate them and to teach consumers not to eat raw eggs, as well as to be very careful in handling chicken meat, rather than try to eradicate salmonella from the flocks. I worked in the food industry at the time that change was made. We had to install refrigerated cases for the eggs. Before that, they were kept at room temperature in the store. It's true that in the US eggs are washed, but the washed eggs are sprayed with a very thin wax layer to replace the protective coating. That keeps them fresh longer, but can't protect against salmonella which is already inside the egg. But if you want to make a recipe which requires raw eggs, you can buy pasteurized eggs. Or take your chances with ordinary eggs and hope you get lucky.

[@lavenderandwine]

The company I used to work for had Vietnamese coffee in the breakroom and I preferred it over the Keurig pods we otherwise had. I don't have a coffee maker, but I think picking some Vietnamese coffee and the strainer would be a good idea. I'd forgotten about it with everything going on the past year. Thank you for the reminder and the sharing of your culture.
