Coffee feelings of the Sudanese Sudan is located in northeastern Africa

It is no stranger to people to mention coffee. However, if you enter Africa and enter the country of Sudan, you will gradually find that there is an inextricable bond between Sudanese and coffee.

Sudan is located in northeast Africa, with an area of about 2.5 million square kilometers, is the largest country in Africa, with a population of more than 25 million. Arabic is the official language of Sudan and English is widely used. Most people believe in Islam. Because of the need of work, we are fortunate to step into this ancient and mysterious land. In our work and life, we gradually find that Sudanese especially like to drink coffee, from dignitaries to civilian cloth clothes. Wherever you go, wherever people live or by the side of the road, there is always a stall set up by local women to prepare coffee for people. The three or five stalls are connected together to form a beautiful scenery. Dressed in colorful clothes, they look very bright from afar. When he approached, he was dignified, generous and enthusiastic, and he seemed to have a shy and shy look in conversation with him, and he felt more and more agreeable. The commonplace coffee stands are actually part of the working life of the Sudanese people.

We Chinese like drinking and drinking tea. We are not very interested in coffee. We only taste it occasionally, either coffee with sugar or coffee with milk. However, this is not the case in Sudan, where there are several small wooden stools in front of a coffee stand. There are two kinds of these small wooden stools, one is rope woven stool surface, the legs of the stool are wooden, although it looks very simple and primitive, it is very comfortable after sitting. The other is the wooden stool surface, rough, a little simple taste, is used to put the cup, more stable. Sudanese women put a pot of water on a simple charcoal stove in advance. When they need to make coffee, they first pour the water from the pot into a part of an aluminum can with a handle, put the aluminum can on the stove and continue to heat it. When the water temperature is about 80 degrees Celsius, first add a small amount of powdered ginger, slowly stir it well, then put in the right amount of coffee, and continue to stir. When the coffee foams, the heat will arrive. At this time, pour the brewed coffee into a cup with sugar added in advance through a filter, then walk up to you with a plate, hand the cup to your hand, and give you a smile, which is very sweet and beautiful.

Don't worry about drinking coffee in Sudan, just like tasting tea, first take a sip, make two bends in your mouth and stay for tens of seconds, a sweet and spicy feeling permeates your taste and makes you feel refreshed. When you take a second sip, you will feel a surge of heat in your stomach and intestines, which makes you feel like a good medicine for your soul. When drinking again, its fragrance and spicy taste are stronger, which is really refreshing and wonderful. No wonder the Sudanese often say that drinking coffee relieves fatigue and grows energy.

Sudanese coffee has two major characteristics, one is powdered ginger, which makes its taste unique, and the other is that the coffee is processed and made by the local people. First stir-fry the coffee beans, stir-fry until charred, crisp and fragrant, then mash them into powder. Every time I see Sudanese women making coffee powder in a primitive way, it often reminds me of the situation when people in my hometown cooked rice when I was a child. A sense of intimacy arises spontaneously, and a strong local flavor flashes in my mind. This is not in Sudan, it is clearly back to the hometown of the countryside.

The Sudanese drink coffee much more slowly than we do, even when we have finished a meal and the Sudanese have not finished a cup of coffee, they look and behave like an old-fashioned English gentleman. On the other hand, we are different. some of our companions are so impatient that they drink up in two mouthfuls. Drinking coffee in Sudan requires patience, without patience, you will not be able to taste the taste of Sudanese coffee, and it will be very difficult for you to be familiar with the customs of the Sudanese, and it will be difficult for you to understand the inner world of the Sudanese, let alone feel the feelings of the Sudanese.

I am afraid it is difficult to prove when the Sudanese started drinking coffee, just like the Chinese drinking tea, it should have a long history. Coffee nourishes Sudanese culture, and coffee contains Sudanese joy, anger, sadness, joy, sadness and thought. Coffee brings comfort, sweetness, leisure and serenity to the Sudanese. Coffee represents the strong flavor of life of the Sudanese, and coffee also gives the nation its unique way of life, way of work and unique emotional world.

Sometimes, because of the tiredness of work, we also envy the coffee culture of the Sudanese. If you can do this often in life, isn't it also very happy and cozy?
