You need:
- Turkish coffee grinds (or VERY finely ground coffee beans, medium roast)
- Turkish coffee pot (or Jezve/Cezve/Ibrik)
- Small coffee cup
- Teaspoon
- Fresh, cold water
- Stove/oven top, preferably gas, but electric also works
- Piece of wood for stirring
Backstory: When I first started making Turkish coffee (also calledΤούρκικος καφές in Greek, قهوة تركية in Arabic), which is also popular in parts of the Middle East and Eastern Europe, it was a huge fail.
I spent so much time reading online and watching videos how to make frothy, foamy Turkish coffee, rather than lifeless and flat coffee - and picked up tips along the way. But there wasn't really one definitive source in one place that taught me everything I'd need to learn to make good Turkish coffees I'd actually want to serve friends or family.
It's taken me probably over ONE HUNDRED cups of really bad Turkish to finally make really frothy ones - and even then, I sometimes ruin it!
Please also note: I'm sure most Turkish people can make far better coffee than me - this is just my own humble journey in making this awesome speciality!
Of course, for the frothiest, foamiest Turkish coffee in the world, you'd need to head to a street cafe in Turkey, or a Turkish person's home.
Enjoy - and good luck with your Turkish coffee!
