Let’s make coffee.
- 01
Measure with your cup
Fill your serving cup with drinking water and transfer it to the cezve. Add 6 g of coffee and sugar if wanted.
- 02
Heat gently
Stir well while heating slowly, watching for foam to rise.
- 03
Share the foam
Gently pour a little foam into your cup.
- 04
Heat once more and serve
Return the cezve to the heat for another rise, then gently fill the cup. Serve with a glass of water.
Give your cup a measurement
Weigh the water your cup holds once, then save that number. A recipe recorded in grams is easier to repeat when you use another cup.
About this recipe
Written for Coffee Book.
Adapted from Kurukahveci Mehmet Efendi. The source measures water by the serving cup, so no fixed millilitre amount is assumed here.
