Turkish Coffee Kahve Recipes

TURKISH COFFEE RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Pour the water into the cezve. Add the coffee and sugar, if using. Mix well to dissolve the coffee and sugar. Do not stir after this point.
• Place the cezve on the stovetop over medium heat. After a few minutes, the coffee will rise and foam up.
• Just before it begins to boil, remove the cezve from the heat. Skim off the foam, adding a little to each serving cup. Return the cezve to the heat and let it slowly foam up again.
• Pour the coffee very slowly into the serving cups so the foam rises to the top.
• Let the coffee settle for a few minutes, then serve.

TURKISH COFFEE....KAH'WAH

Steps:

• Place water and sugar in a large enough pot to boil the water.
• Make sure you allow room, because boiling coffee tends to want to boil up and over.
• Once boil is achieved, add coffee, very slowly, and decrease heat.
• Stir coffee very frequently.
• When making it, I let it comes to a boil and when it starts to boil up the pot I take it off the burner for 2 seconds, then repeat the steps 3-4 times.
• Serve in demitasse cups.
• *Do not leave coffee boiling on stove unattended, it WILL boil over*.
• *If serving for a large group, just double or triple the recipe accordingly*.

TURKISH COFFEE - KAHVE

Steps:

• Place one espresso size cup of cold water or milk (Depending upon the variety chosen from above) into cazve/very small pot.
• Add one teaspoon of powdered Turkish Coffee into the cazve/very small pot.
• Add sugar if desired depending which variety you wish to drink.
• Stir and heat on stove immediately, coffee will rise, remove from heat and add one spoon of froth into serving cup.
• Return pot to heat and cook until coffee rises again. This could be done once or three times in total each time spoon froth into serving cup. Once the three repetitions are complete, add the rest of the coffee from the pot into the serving cup.
• Good kahve has a creamy foam floating on top. (Similar to the crema found atop good espresso coffee but with a great deal more body).
• Do not drink grounds on the bottom of the cup.
