To make Turkish coffee, the coffee beans must be ground to a very fine powder. Most electric grinders cannot grind coffee this fine.
First our ingredients
First Method
Put a cup of water for each cup of coffee in the coffee pot and add 1 teaspoon of coffee and 1 teaspoon of sugar for each cup of coffee.
Stir well and place the coffee pot on low heat.
After placing, never stir and slowly bring to a boil.
When it starts to boil, distribute the foam from the top into the cups.
Boil again and distribute the remainder into cups.
Second Method
First of all, the ingredients of foamy Turkish coffee are important. Yes, as everyone knows, the trio of water, coffee and sugar is cooked on the fire, but the details of this job are not that simple.
First of all, ice-cold water should be taken out of the refrigerator.
If the coffee is made with hot or lukewarm water, the foam you will get will fill two cups at most. Even the second will struggle.
Now for the other quantities:
We put two teaspoons of coffee and one teaspoon of sugar per person and start cooking our coffee over low heat. Low heat is an important detail. By the way, the coffee pot is removed from the fire just as it is boiling and it is not poured directly into the cups.
With a spoon, the foam formed on the top of the coffee pot is divided equally into all the cups and then the coffee is poured until half of the cup is filled.
After two stones, the remaining coffee is poured into the cups.
What should you pay attention to to make coffee with lots of foam?
If you have the time and patience, roast and grind the coffee beans yourself. Freshly roasted and ground coffee is always more successful. This is because the coffee oils will be in much better condition than in coffee that has been sitting around. Since the roasting part is a bit laborious, you can also just grind the beans. With a simple hand grinder, you can easily grind your coffee in a very short time.
If you are going to buy pre-roasted and ground coffee, buy a freshly ground product from a good brand. Do not use a damp spoon when buying coffee. Close your coffee can tightly. Do not use coffee that has been sitting for a long time.
Always use clean and cold drinking water. If you use tap water, the chlorine in this water will spoil the taste of your coffee.
Do not heat the coffee and consume it again. Within half an hour at most, the coffee will have lost all its good properties…
