Do you add salt to your coffee?

[HyperboreanRightsActivist]

I can't imagine drinking it without a pinch of savoriness. The Mongols had the right idea tbh

 

[KittyGremlin]

I'm gonna have to try that next time.

 

[8mm Cunningham]

Wypipo don even season dey coffee!

 

[Aiōn]

No but there is sodium in dairy products, I have been drinking my coffee with heavy cream lately. I hear that the Mongolians also like to drink fresh and fermented horse milk?

 

[Pierre D'Olnique]

No, but I added salt instead of sugar when making pudding once. Fucking foul is what that was, had to throw it all away.

 

[The Blue Morpho]

No I drink it black. I've never heard of Mongolians adding salt to their coffee or even drinking coffee at all, I assumed they drank tea and if they added anything it would be horse/yak butter.

 

[Chongqing]

fermented horse milk?

That's how they make vodka.

They also drink suutei tsai, which is horse milk + tea + salt + spices

I've never heard of Mongolians adding salt to their coffee

Mongols knew about coffee through the Turks, but they didn't start drinking it until more recent times. Some like to drink it with salt because they're used to suutei

It's weird that there is still a majority of people who don't just add a tiny pinch to their grounds before brewing. Salt combats bitterness and enhances whatever sweet flavors you might add later, hence all dessert recipes including a touch of salt. This isn't exactly a snob take; everyone already adds salt to everything else they cook and I'm not telling people to exclusively use rose salt imported from an underwater cavern or some shit. Use the off brand that's under $1 per pound, it won't matter as long as you're not ingesting poison.

Save yourself the need for extra sweetener and just add a touch of salt, you absolute weirdos.

Smoked meat and cheese coffee, that's the way to go.

 

[RoonMoonlight]

I like my coffee like I like my women; black and preferably fair trade. And without salt. But I'm curious now. About how much would you put into say, a tall Yeti travel cup of coffee? I don't want to dump a full teaspoon in and taste nothing but salt.

 

[Saddam Hussain Obama]

ive never heard of this before

 

[The Blue Morpho]

The Vietnamese put egg yolk into their coffee, as they brew it, supposed to make it very rich and creamy.

 

[Iron Jaguar]

That's a common Navy thing.
Anyway, porridge must have salt.

 

[𝕺𝖑' 𝕯𝖎𝖗𝖙𝖞 𝕱𝖆𝖙𝖘𝖔]

I don't drink coffee very often but almost any beverage other than plain water can be improved with a tiny bit of salt

 

[Party Hat Wurmple]

Most people don't understand that salt is flavor. Everything is improved with salt because it extracts the moisture and emboldens it. That's why when you roast salsa you need to add lots of salt.

 

[thejackal2]

When brewed properly (with the right beans) coffee should not be too bitter or acidic, even black. That said, there's a lot of shitty coffee out there so do what you gotta do.

 

[God of Nothing]

Wypipo don even season dey coffee!

salting coffee is indeed nigger shit

 

[SERAPHlM]

You should try putting salt on freshly harvested coffee beans and eating them like that.

 

[derpherp2]

This feels like cope for people that somehow can't afford caramel.
