How to Make a Perfect Turkish Coffee?☕

The pride of Turkish coffee lies in its rich foam. Serving coffee without foam to a guest is not well received, as it suggests the person did not put care into making it.😊

Let’s jump right into the recipe!

Ingredients (per person):

• 2 teaspoons of coffee
• 1 teaspoon of sugar
• 1 cup of water

Equipment:

• Cezve (a wide-mouthed, long-handled pot)
• Coffee cups

Instructions:

1. For each person, add 2 teaspoons of coffee and 1 teaspoon of sugar to 1 cup of water in the cezve.
2. Place the cezve over low heat. This is very important for a rich foam.
3. Do not stir once the cezve is on the heat. Allow the coffee to slowly come to a boil.
4. When foam forms on top, scoop it with a spoon and evenly distribute it into the cups.
5. Fill the cups halfway with coffee from the cezve.
6. Bring the coffee to a boil a second time, then pour the remaining coffee into the cups.
7. Serve immediately and enjoy your rich, frothy Turkish coffee! ☕

Tips for a Frothy, Delicious Turkish Coffee:

• If using pre-roasted and ground coffee, choose a fresh product from a good brand.
• Do not use a damp spoon when measuring coffee.
• Keep the coffee container tightly sealed. Avoid using coffee that has been stored for a long time.
• Always use clean, cold drinking water. Tap water may contain chlorine, which can spoil the flavor.
• Do not reheat coffee that has been sitting too long; it loses its flavor and aroma within about half an hour.
