How to cook deliciously - How to Make Turkish Coffee

1. Stage

Mix the coffee, water, and (if using) sugar or spices in the cezve: Place the water and Turkish coffee grounds in a metal cezve (Turkish coffee pot). Add the sugar and/or spice, if using, to the pot along with the grounds. Stir with a small spoon or chopstick to combine.

2. Stage

Begin brewing over medium-low heat: Place the cezve on the stovetop and cook on medium-low heat, until the water just starts to boil. This should take about 3 to 4 minutes. Don’t try to rush the boiling, you want it to come to a slow simmer to give the coffee time to brew. Once you see the Turkish coffee start to boil and rise, remove from the heat. If you’d like foam with your Turkish coffee, spoon some of the foam out of the cezve and into your finjan (cup). Once the coffee has settled down, return the pot to the stove and let it boil again. Repeat this process, removing the pot from the stove to let the coffee settle, and then re-boiling it 3 more times.

3. Stage

Serve: After the 4th time, pour the rest of the coffee into the finjan. Serve with a glass of cold water and a sweet treat like Turkish delight on the side. Did you love the recipe? Leave us stars below!
