CHESTNUT LATTE, that's how we have named this hot and autumnal drink that tastes tremendously delicious. We buy chestnuts at @sweetparadise_vegan, a vegan cafe in Tenerife. They are not just any chestnuts, they are solidarity because they are collected in the animal sanctuary @fincaarkadia with a lot of love and everything that is collected from their sale goes directly to help its inhabitants. In addition to being able to buy solidarity products such as stickers, illustrations and t-shirts, you can help them by making a one-time donation and even sponsoring a resident by becoming a Patreon. We have sponsored Rita, a beautiful hen.
We leave you their website www.arkadia-animalsanctuary.org so that you know more about them.
And going back to the #vegan recipe, here is the step by step of this very special # castañalatte:
CHESTNUT LATTE (2 lattes, although the cream makes for 10)
Total processing time: 50 minutes
INGREDIENTS:
- 500 g of chestnuts
- 200 ml of water
- 150 ml of agave syrup
- 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
- 6 tablespoons of coffee
- 500 ml of oat or soy milk (they are the best foam)
· We will start by stewing the chestnuts. To be able to peel them well, make two cross cuts on one side before cooking them.
· Let them boil for 10 minutes so that they cook well.
· Drain and wash.
· Let stand until no smoke comes out so that you can peel them without burning yourself.
· Remove the skin with a knife or cut them in half and scoop out the chestnut with a spoon.
· The final amount of peeled chestnuts that we had was 350 g, which are what we will use to make the chestnut cream.
· Place them in a tall pitcher to blend and add the water, agave and vanilla.
· Blend until you have a cream.
· Heat it over medium heat in a saucepan while stirring.
· When it boils, reduce the heat to low and cook for 20 minutes, stirring from time to time.
· Let this cream rest in a glass container.
· Make coffee and heat the vegetable milk.
· You are going to serve at the bottom of each cup 3 tablespoons of the chestnut cream, and compact it at the bottom.
· Pour in the milk, but leave half a finger on top.
· Add 3 tablespoons of coffee. All these quantities are to our liking, if you want more sweetness add more chestnut cream and if you don't want coffee you can omit it.
· On top we are going to froth it, which is as easy as pouring the rest of the vegetable milk with electric rods.
· A touch of final cinnamon and that's it.
