Flan with Indonesian Coffee

About

Introduction to Indonesian Coffee Flan Indonesian Coffee Flan is a unique dessert that combines the richness of traditional flan with the distinct flavors of Indonesian coffee. This dessert is enhanced by the caramel notes typically found in flan, which are elevated by the bold, aromatic flavors of Indonesian coffee. The coffee adds a deep, intense flavor profile that complements the creamy texture of the flan. Components and Preparation This dessert often incorporates ingredients like Indonesian palm sugar (Gula Jawa) and pandan leaves for added depth. The use of agar powder, derived from seaweed, is common in Indonesian desserts, providing a vegan alternative to gelatin. The preparation involves caramelizing sugar, mixing the coffee with milk and eggs, and then steaming or baking the mixture until set. The result is a creamy, velvety dessert with a caramelized sugar crust and a bold coffee flavor.
