Coffee recipes

Since the first coffee shop was opened in Constantinopol (Turkey), the first coffee recipe will be the turkish one. So forget about the coffee machine and lets try a cup of coffee with personality. Hand made. All u need is a small cup of water, 1 teaspoon of sugar and one teaspoon of turkish coffee (fine ground coffee and not instant one). Heat up the water in a small kettle at low heat. Dissolve sugar in the water stirring constantly and add the coffee after. Do not let the mixture boil. Remove the kettle from the heat when foam starts rising. After a small cool down (just a few seconds) return to the heat, repeat the operation 4 times . To be served in a cup or a small glass.
This is the turkish recipe, i adapted it a little to my own tastes and i add little cinnamon at the last heat up. Whenever i make coffee i do believe that every cup has a little personality. So make it with pleasure and joy and your coffee will taste great. And don't forget to share it with people you love.
