In honor of Thanksgiving, I present a recipe for Turkish Coffee (yeah, I know, it’s a real stretch). Ingredients: 1 cup water 1 tablespoon of extra finely ground coffee (powder consistency) 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom, or 1 cardamom pod sugar (optional) Preparation: Bring water and sugar to a boil in ibrik. If you do not have an ibrik, a small saucepan will work. Remove from heat and add coffee and cardamom. Return saucepan to heat and allow to come to a boil. Remove from heat when coffee foams. Again, return to heat, allowing to foam and remove from heat. Pour into cup, and allow to sit for a few minutes for the grounds to settle to the bottom of the cup. Cardamom pod may be served in cup for added flavor.
