A cup of Turkish coffee with divination?

Turkish coffee, also known as Arabica coffee, is the ancestor of European coffee, which has a history of 700 to 800 years. It is said that in Turkey, it is extremely noble to make a cup of traditional Turkish coffee for guests, and some even bathe and fast in advance.

Taste

Turkish coffee is not common, and its taste is mainly divided into three flavors: Skaito, Metrio and Gligi. The main cooking method is to use a stainless steel pot called Briki to grind the coffee powder very fine and cook it directly in the pot until it boils, then turn off the fire and pour it all into the cup.

Turks drink coffee, the residue is not filtered out, because the coffee is ground very fine, so when tasting, most of the coffee powder will precipitate at the bottom of the cup, but when drinking, you can still drink some fine coffee powder. This is also the most important feature of Turkish coffee. Another feature of Turkish coffee is that when drinking it, you don't add any companion or milk, and when you cook coffee, you first add some sugar, and the amount of sugar is mainly according to your personal preference. Some people like to drink bitterness without adding sugar at all, while others prefer a sweeter taste.

In addition, in order to really taste the unique taste of Turkish coffee, there will also be a cup of ice water. Before drinking Turkish coffee, it is best to drink a mouthful of ice water so that the taste in the mouth can reach the most sensitive degree. Then you can slowly experience the slightly sour and bitter feeling of Turkish coffee!

The standard is finer than flour. Then mix the spices such as cloves, cardamom and cinnamon. Then put 100ml of cold water in the Turkish coffee pot. Then add about 10 grams of coffee powder. 100ml water + 10g powder is the golden ratio of a cup of coffee.

After the raw material is added, it should be heated and stirred constantly. Stir gently and slowly to avoid dispersing the powder layer of the liquid surface (to avoid breaking slag), so as to avoid excessive extraction. Just before boiling, there was a layer of golden foam on the surface. The foam gradually increased and surged up quickly. Immediately, the pot was removed from the fire. After several times of boiling, the coffee became thicker and thicker, but not until the water was boiled in half. When the coffee grounds precipitate to the bottom, pour out the clarified coffee liquid on the top layer. Sometimes lemon or honey can be added. Such a delicious cup of Turkish coffee is ready.
