How to Make Turkish Coffee Kahve
- Add 90ml (3oz) of cold water (or milk, for a unique twist) to a cezve (small, long-handled pot).
- Add 1 teaspoon (approx. 2-3 grams) of finely ground Turkish coffee to the cezve.
- Add sugar to taste (see varieties below): * **Sade (plain):** No sugar * **Az şekerli (slightly sweet):** 1/2 teaspoon sugar * **Orta şekerli (medium sweet):** 1 teaspoon sugar * **Şekerli (sweet):** 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
- Gently stir the mixture to combine the coffee and sugar (if using).
- Place the cezve over medium-low heat. As the coffee begins to rise and foam, carefully remove it from the heat.
- Using a spoon, gently skim off about 1 teaspoon of the foam and place it into a small espresso cup (approx. 90ml/3oz).
- Return the cezve to the heat and repeat steps 5 and 6 two more times, adding the skimmed foam to the serving cup each time.
- After the third rise, carefully pour the remaining coffee from the cezve into the serving cup, leaving the grounds behind.
- Enjoy your perfectly brewed Turkish Kahve! The creamy foam is a sign of a expertly made cup. Remember, don't drink the coffee grounds at the bottom.
