Some tips on coffee recipes

1. To preserve the aroma and taste of coffee powder, add a little sugar and store in a covered container.
2. The strainer is important for good coffee. When new, boil it in an infusion of used coffee powder. Always moisten the strainer before use.
3. Scald the pot, cups and strainer with very hot water. This will give you a better tasting drink.
4. Coffee should not be reheated. But if you do, always make it in a bain-marie.
5. When coffee is boiled, it loses its aroma and flavor. Times, however, are not for wasting. So if you’ve accidentally let the coffee boil, do the following:
   1. when you take it off the heat, add a spoonful of cold water so that it doesn’t taste unpleasant.
   2. But don’t offer it to me because I don’t accept reheated coffee.

COFFEE RECIPES

3 BRAZILIAN-STYLE COFFEE RECIPES

Brazilian Style Coffee I

INGREDIENTS

• Boiling water
• Coffee powder

PREPARATION I

1. Pour as much coffee as you like into the strainer.
2. As soon as the water boils, pour it over the top and strain it into a teapot scalded with boiling water.
3. If you have to change teapots, the one in the living room should be filled with very hot water and only emptied
4. when the coffee is ready and strained.

This is the most common way of preparing coffee, the most widespread, but the best, for me, is the 3rd recipe.

Brazilian-style coffee II

INGREDIENTS

• Coffee
• Boiling water
• A square of thick cloth with 2 sticks, one on each side.

PREPARATION II

1. Place the coffee inside this square, over the mouth of the vessel in which you are going to strain the coffee.
2. Pour boiling water over the top.
3. When all the water has gone through, hold the two long sticks and twist them to the same side, squeezing out the rest of the liquid that remains in the coffee powder.

For many northerners and northeasterners, this is still the right way to prepare a good cup of coffee.
