Cappuccino Experience

Mooooooo

Written by admin on 15 April, 2009 – 11:44 am -

This week I bought some latte crudo (’raw’ milk) from a special distributor in the centre of Cherasco, Piedmont. For quite some time I have been wanting to make a cappuccino using fresh milk straight from the cow and last night I finally managed it. Was it better than my usual cappuccino? Keep reading to find out.

One litre of milk cost €1 from the distributor, which was quite easy to use (after some initial confusion). Whilst the milk was being delivered the ‘cow’ made a contented mooooing noise!

I would have liked to taste the milk immediately but to be safe it is recommended that it is boiled before drinking so I had no choice but to resist.

That evening I made my first cappuccino with the special milk. It was worth the wait. I have drunk many, many cappuccini in my time but this one was different. It was lighter and had a slightly sweeter flavour (I never put sugar in my drinks). Even stranger it felt more ‘refreshing’ than usual.

Mr Cappuccino’s verdict: A resounding success.
