How to make Turkish Coffee
Centuries ago, when people spent more of their time to focus on the
demands of their everyday pleasures and give less time to the load
of business and corporate life, coffee making improved some
ceremonies that exist in ‘lite’ versions in our days. During ancient
times, experts want their coffee to be heated gradually over
charcoal embers approximately for 15 to 20 minutes, and the copper
coffee pot was often removed from the fire to prevent overheating.
An expert can easily make a distinction between a well- made Turkish
coffee to the one prepared and serve up by cheap restaurants. These
restaurants used to boil the coffee quickly, which degrades the
taste and create little froth that needs to cover the cup of coffee.
Although at present time, there are still a few people who apply the
traditional ways of preparing the coffee by means of boiling using
charcoal. However, for convenient purposes, modern gas or electric
stove became the heating equipment as an alternative.
For your Turkish coffee, you
need to have these items in your kitchen:
• Turkish coffee bean
• Turkish coffee pot
• Turkish coffee grinder, if you
want to grind the coffee beans. However, some grinder failed to
obtain the extra fine ground coffee that Turkish coffee requires.
The techniques in making a
perfect Turkish coffee:
1. Pour cold
water in the coffee pot. One cup of cold water per each cup is
required. Then, add an additional half cup “for the pot”. Put in one
teaspoon of ground Turkish coffee for each cup of cold water and
stir. The amount of coffee may be changed based on taste. A fat
layer of coffee grounds at the bottom of your cup is the distinction
of the approved made Turkish coffee. Fill in the pot with enough
coffee. If you need to put in more sugar, this is the exact time to
do it.
2. Slowly Heat
the pot as much as you can to get better result. Carefully check it
regularly to avoid spilling over when the coffee boils.
3. Pour some
but not all of the coffee evenly between the cups while the water
boils. Be sure that you fill each cup about a quarter to a third of
the way. This will ensure that everyone gets an equal share of the
foam forming on top of the pot, without losing the delightful taste
of the coffee. You should prolong heating until coffee boils. Let it
boil for few minutes since it has boiled already. Then, pour out the
rest of the coffee between the cups.
Since there is no straining of coffee whenever this process is being
perform, you should wait for a few minutes before drinking your
flavorsome Turkish coffee as the coffee grounds settle at the
underneath your cup.
It is not just satisfying your taste buds in drinking cup of Turkish
coffee matters, but also sustain your hunger for few instructions on
how to prepare it by your own. Learn the ways on how to prepare the
traditional Turkish coffee appropriately so wherever you are and
whenever you want, you can savor the secrets of Turkish coffee!
