What you’ll need
- Turkish Coffee
- Turkish Coffee maker
- adjustable heat source
- sugar
- water
- coffee/tea cups
- girl from Turkey
Ok, so maybe not that last one, but that’s where I got the recipe, so let’s roll.
First off, this is to make two cups of coffee. Start by taking two heaping teaspoons of Turkish coffee and dropping them into your Turkish Coffee Maker. then add 4 sugar cubes, and two coffee cups worth of water to the mix.
Stir until the sugar cubes are about 50% dissolved.
Put your coffee maker over the lowest flame setting on your stove, and watch it. Eventually, a dark ring will start forming around the edge of the cup. Watch it. This ring will slowly close in on the center of the cup, then start increasing in speed, you want to pull it off of the flame and fill each of o your coffee cups to halfway.
Place the coffee maker back on the flames for about another 15 seconds to boil a bit and put a bit more heat into the coffee. then remove it from the flame and fill the cups the rest of the way.
Ta-daa!
While you don’t need a Turkish girl to make it, you should definitely find some Turkish Delight or some good chocolate to serve with it. It makes all the difference!
