Turkish Coffee, by Matt (Abstract Gourmet)

Matt (Abstract Gourmet) creates a mean Turkish coffee in an ibrik.

 

One thing I learned in our discussions and drinks was that well made coffee doesn't actually require any sugar added. This was a bit of a revelation, as I'd never considered this. This is as heating the milk properly denatures the proteins, and makes the lactose sugars more bioavailable to occupy sweet receptors on the tongue. Good stuff.

 

I'd recommend you pop over to his well designed and attractive food blog - it's at www.abstractgourmet.com
