The recipe for oriental coffee in Turk

Kitchen appliances and utensils:stove, turk, coffee grinder, kitchen scale / measuring cup, sharp knife, tablespoon.

Ingredients

Step cooking

1. Measure 30 g of coffee beans on a kitchen scale or in a measuring cup. Grind in a coffee grinder. Use only fresh grinding to make the drink.
   
2. In the meantime, heat the water to 93º. Pour the shredded coffee into the Turk and pour a small amount of water.
   
3. Put the Turk on the stove. Thoroughly mix the mixture in Turk for 30 seconds.
   
4. Then add the remaining volume of water to fill the vessel, namely its thin part of the neck.
   
5. Divide one vanilla bean in half. Using a knife, remove all the grains, pour them into the Turk. It is better to use legume vanilla, since vanilla sugar or vanillin will not give coffee a rich aroma.
   
6. During the preparation of the drink, be sure to make circular movements with the Turk over the fire if you are making coffee on a gas stove, or slide on the surface in the same circular movements when cooking on an electric burner. This process will simulate the process of brewing coffee. Add spices to the coffee - ground cinnamon, salt and cane sugar in the right amount.
   
7. Stir the mixture with very neat and slow movements so as not to break the resulting pillow into coffee, and the spices continued to brew along with coffee. When the drink is heated, it is a characteristic raising of the liquid, remove the Turk from the stove and make circular motions in the air to cool the drink a little. Then put it back on the stove. Repeat this procedure three times. This will make the drink thicker.
   
8. The drink is ready to serve. Properly brewed coffee will have a distinctive froth on top and a spicy coffee aroma.
   

Decoration methods and serving options

The most important part of an oriental coffee meal is its serving. The drink is served to the table right in the Turk (cezve) and poured without filtering coffee from the seeds. At the same time, the foam that forms from above during cooking is laid first in the cup, and only then the coffee itself is poured.

Of great importance is the dishes with which they drink coffee. The volume of coffee cups in the east should be 60-70 ml. Serving in tea cups or demitas - special dishes for espresso is considered unacceptable. A teaspoon of sugar is not attached to the serving.

A very common option for serving Eastern coffee is to decorate it with a cinnamon stick. To do this, simply put cinnamon in a cup and pour coffee. If you are a lover of spicy and piquant tastes, then feel free to add your favorite spices already in the finished coffee. For example, use cardamom, red peppers or a clove of garlic.
