Master the Art of Turkish Coffee with a Jezve – A Step-by-Step Brewing Guide.

Unlock the centuries-old tradition of Turkish coffee brewing with a jezve (cezve). In this detailed guide, we’ll take you through the step-by-step process of creating the perfect cup of rich and aromatic Turkish coffee.

Ingredients and Equipment:

• Finely ground Turkish coffee beans
• Cold water
• Jezve (cezve)
• Small spoon
• Sugar (optional)
• Cardamom (optional)
• A heat source (stovetop or open flame)
• Small coffee cups
• Cold water (for serving)

Instructions:

1. Measure Ingredients:

• For each cup of Turkish coffee, measure:
• 1 heaping teaspoon of finely ground Turkish coffee
• 1 teaspoon of sugar (adjust to taste, or omit if you prefer)
• A pinch of ground cardamom (optional, for flavor)

2. Prepare the Jezve:

• Fill your jezve with cold water to measure the number of cups you intend to brew.
• Add the measured coffee, sugar, and cardamom (if using) directly into the cold water, stirring gently to combine. Do not stir after this point.

3. Heat Slowly:

• Place the jezve on the heat source (stovetop or open flame).
• Heat the mixture slowly, keeping the heat low to avoid boiling. Allow the coffee to dissolve gradually, creating a foam on the surface.

4. The Crucial Foam: As the coffee heats, it will begin to froth and form a distinctive foam. Be attentive and watch the foam closely.
5. Frothing and Removal: Just before the coffee reaches a boil and starts to rise, remove the jezve from the heat source. This step is crucial to maintain the desired foam.
6. Divide the Foam: Using a small spoon, carefully scoop out some of the foam and distribute it evenly among the coffee cups.
7. Return to Heat: Place the jezve back on the heat source, allowing the remaining coffee to heat up again. Ensure not to bring it to a boil.
8. Pour the Coffee: Once the coffee is hot but not boiling, pour it gently into the coffee cups, filling them without disturbing the foam.
9. Serve with Cold Water: Traditionally, Turkish coffee is served with a small glass of cold water to cleanse the palate between sips.
10. Enjoy: Savor the unique taste and experience of Turkish coffee. The combination of rich coffee, foam, and optional spices creates a truly special brew.
