Norwegian egg coffee: This is an idea that casual coffee drinkers and coffee snobs alike can enjoy. It’s also called Swedish egg coffee or Scandinavian egg coffee, depending on who you ask.

Over the past couple of years, this method of coffee making has been making its rounds on the internet.

I wanted to share my family’s recipe, which is one we’ve been making for decades.

What Is Norwegian Egg Coffee?

Egg coffee is method of coffee making that involves mixing coffee grounds with a raw egg. The mixture is added to water and boiled until the foam disappears.

There is no coffee filter used, so extra water is added to the coffee pot to settle the grounds.

The result is a smooth, clear coffee.

Truth be told, the taste difference here is subtle. Your afternoon coffee guests may not be able to tell the difference – but don’t be surprised if you get compliments on your brew. This is definitely a method of coffee making worth trying.

Does It Taste Like Eggs?

No. There is no egg taste to the coffee. The coffee tastes like coffee – a clean and smooth cup of coffee.
