Coffee: Concentrated Coffee
>From the book "Coffee" by Kenneth Davids
Take one pound of your favorite coffee, regular grind and put it in a
glass bowl
Add 8 cups of cold water
Poke the floating coffee down into the water so all the grounds are wet
Let the bowl stand in a cool, dark place for 10 to 20 hours
(depending on how strong you want the concentrate)
When the brewing period is over, use a large coffee cone and filter to filter
the concentrate into an airtight bottle and store in the refrigerator.
For hot coffee, use 1 to 2 ounces per cup.
----------------------------------
Coffee: Dandelion Root "Coffee"
(4 cups, filter coffee maker)
3 1/4 tsp. dandelion root (roasted, ground fine)
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
dash nutmeg
(5 cups, plastic perk-type pot for microwaving)
2 tblsp. dandelion root (roasted, med grind)
1/4 tsp cinnamon
dash nutmeg
Cook on high in microwave for 7 mins.
--------------------------==
Coffee: Don's Cappuchino
One double espresso. An equal amount of frothed milk. two teaspoon
hershey's cocoa. one teaspoon sugar-in-the-raw. The Sunday NY Times
Crossword Puzzle. One cold winter Sunday Afternoon.
----------------------------------
Coffee: Espresso
Get some strong coffee beans (preferably espresso) and grind them
corsely. (Fine will work too, but it's a pain in the end). Take the
grounds, dump them in cold water, stir it up, and stick it in the fridge.
The next day, most of the grounds will have risen to the surface. Get a
spoon and remove as much as you can. Then, pour the rest through cheese
cloth. That's it.
Now, when we made it, the proportions were 6 lbs coffee to 5 gallons of
water. When I make it at home, i use 2 cups of coffee to a standard
pitcher of water. It's safer to use extra coffee grounds 'cause you can
always dilute it.
Also, you can add some vanilla to the stuff. Though, what i do at home,
is to mix espresso beans with amaretto beans.
----------------------------------
Coffee: Flavored Coffees
Makes 10-12 cups with these coffees:
Cinnamon - Place 1/2" of cinnamon stick in a coffee grinder, grind for a
few seconds and then add coffee beans and process to your preference.
Orange - I dry strips or orange peel (the zest only) and put 1/2 of strip
in the coffee grinder with the beans, typically it works out to be
about 1/10 to 1/12 of the entire orange zest.
Mocha - 1/8 t of cocoa powder in the coffee grinds, be careful too much
cocoa will clog the coffee filter.
--------------------------==
Coffee: Frappe' (Greek Iced Coffee)
1/2 C. strong coffee.
1/2 C. milk (non-fat dry milk and water works fine)
1-2 t. sugar, honey, whatever
Mix together. Blend at highest blender speed for about 1 minute. Pour into
a glass and drink with a straw.
Notes:
- This works best if everything is cold (if you make fresh coffee, mix
it with the milk and let it sit in the fridge for 1/2 hour.
-If it is not frothy, add more milk, or even just some more milk powder.
-The froth gradually turns to liquid at the bottom of the glass, so you will
find that you can sit and drink this for about 1/2 hour, with more iced
coffee continually appearing at the bottom. Very refreshing.
--------------------------==
Coffee: Frothing Milk for Cappucchino
I used to have problems getting milk steamed just right using the steam tube
on my espresso machine. I've devised a foolproof way of getting perfect
frothed milk: Measure about a cup of milk (I've used 1%, 2%, and whole milk
successfully) into a blender. Whirl until you've got a fair amount of foam
(about five seconds). Pour into a microwaveable container. Nuke on high
power for about five seconds. It really works!
----------------------------------
Coffee: Iced Coffee
1/4 cup instant coffee granules
1/4 cup sugar or equivalent sweetener
1/4 cup hot water
4 cups cold milk
Mix together until coffee and sugar is dissolved. Add milk. Shake well.
Using a blender or milk shake maker produces a very foamy drink.
--------------------------==
Coffee: Iced Coffee Fillip **
2 teaspoons Kahlua
cooled strong coffee
Mix together in a glass and chill before serving.
----------------------------------
Coffee: Irish Coffee (from Friendly Foods)
4t unsalted mirin
1C soy milk
1t lime juice
1/2C grain coffee
1C boiling water
2C unsalted mirin
Whisk together mirin, soy milk and lime juice and set aside. Just before
serving, combine grain coffee, boiling water and mirin and pour into
mugs. To add the 'cream', hold a spoon upside down just over the surface
of the liquid and gently pour on 1/4 of the 'cream'.
--------------------------==
Coffee: Masala Chah (Indian tea) **
Masala Cha...Microwave version, courtesy of Julie Sahni's new
book, Moghul Microwave.
3.5 cups water
1 3 inch piece cinnammon, broken into pieces
8 green or white cardamon pods, crushed
3 whole cloves
1/2 by 3 inch strip of fresh or dried orange peel
5 fresh basil leaves
2 heaping teaspoons leaf tea, or 3 bags orange pekoe or Darjeeling
Pour water into an 8 cup glass measure. Heat uncovered,
at 100% power in 700 watt microwave for 7 minutes, or until
water comes to a boil.
Add all ingredients. Cook uncovered for 2 minutes, or until
color of tea comes out. Remove from oven and pour into a
warmed teapot. Serve tea strained into cups and pass milk
and sweetener as desired.
Variation
To make 1 cup classic spiced tea, combine 1 cup water
with 1 inch piece cinnammon, 2 whole cardamon cloves,
1 whole clove, 1/2 by 1 inch piece orange peel, 1 basil
leaf and 1 heaping teaspoon leaf tea or 1 teabag into
2 cup measure. Cook uncovered on high for 2 minutes.
or until water boils. Serve as suggested above.
Presentation Bonus:
Peel an orange in a spiral, sticking cloves in the peel.
Pour a small amount of whiskey down the spiral. Ignite.

Coffee: Masala Chai (Spicey Indian Tea)
Ingredients
3 - 4 Tea Spoons/4 Teabags of good tea (Darjeeling/Orange Pekoke/Lipton)
A chunk of dry ginger (or fresh ginger if dry isn't handy)
3 - 4 cardmom pods, crushed (See Note below)
3 Cloves
Small piece of cinnamon
A Tsp of SOANP
(I don't know the name. Can be found at Indian grocers. Also
indian restaurants keep this for your pleasure after dinner
Looks like cummin seeds)
1 or 2 whole black peppers (optional)
Sugar to taste
Milk (atleast Vitamin D, low fat won't do)
Bring 2 cups of water to boil (microwave or otherwise)
Add all the ingredients and boil again for about 15 seconds.
Let stand for a minute.
Warm milk in a pot.
Filter tea into cups. Add milk and sugar. That's IT.
Note: Since cardmom is expensive, I peel them and add the skin to
my stock of tea leaves. This gives a distinct aroma. Of course you
boil the skin with water.
If you don't like to spend much time, mix all the spices and
coarsley grind them. Boil water and add tea and a tsp of
this ground spices. Rest is as above.
--------------------------==
Coffee: Melya
Espresso
Honey
Unsweetened cocoa
Brew espresso; for this purpose, a Bialetti-style stovetop will
work. In a coffee mug, place 1 teaspoon of unsweetened powdered
cocoa; then cover a teaspoon with honey and drizzle it into the
cup. Stir while the coffee brews; this is the fun part. The
cocoa seems to coat the honey without mixing, so you get a dusty,
sticky mass that looks as though it will never mix. Then all at
once, presto! It looks like dark chocolate sauce. Pour hot
espresso over the honey, stirring to dissolve. Serve with cream
(optional). I have never served this cold but I imagine it would
be interesting; I use it as a great hot drink for cold days, though,
so all my memories are of grey skies, heavy sweaters, damp feet
and big smiles.
----------------------------------
Coffee: Russian Tea (Olde English Recipe)
8 cups water
5 tea bags
1 cup sugar
1/2 of a large can of OJ probably about 16oz (not concentrated)
1/2 small can of pineapple juice (about 8ox, again not concentrated)
3T lemon juice
1 T whole cloves
First make tea in the water. Then add all the other stuff. SIMMER at
least 1/2 hour. Makes a nice smell in the kitchen at Christmas parties.
----------------------------------
Coffee: Russian Tea
Mix 1/4 cup instant tea with 1 cup Tang (powdered orange drink).
Add 1 T cinnamon and 1/4 cup sugar. Adjust mixture to your taste.
To make a cup of Russian Tea add about 2 T mixture to a large glass
of water.
Variations:
- Use other powdered fruit drinks (eg. lemonade or Kool-Aide)
or add different spices (eg. ground cardamon, ginger, mint).
- Avoid the caffine and sugar by using decaf'd instant tea and your
favorite sweetening chemicals.
- Make it from fresh ingredients: fresh brewed tea, real fruit juice.
----------------------------------
Coffee: Russian Tea
3 cups Tang
1 cup Instant Iced Tea Mix
1 pkg (scoop) Instant Lemon Drink Mix (powdered lemonade)
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground cloves
Two teaspoonfulls to one cup of VERY hot water.. Does wonders for sore
throats, contains LOTS of vitamin C, and is delicious to boot. *smile*
--------------------------==
Coffee: Spiking coffee
Incidentally, a pinch of cinnamon is indeed a nice addition to coffee but
true heaven is a cardamom seed :-)
----------------------------------
Coffee: Thai Coffee
Makes 1 8-cup pot of coffee
6 tablespoons whole rich coffee beans, ground fine
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander powder
4 or 5 whole green cardamom pods, ground
Place the coffee and spices in the filter cone of your coffee maker.
Brew coffee as usual; let it cool.
In a tall glass, dissolve 1 or 2 teaspoons of sugar in an ounce of the
coffee (it's easier to dissolve than if you put it right over ice).
Add 5-6 ice cubes and pour coffee to within about 1" of the top of the
glass.
Rest a spoon on top of the coffee and slowly pour whipping cream into
the spoon. This will make the cream float on top of the coffee rather
than dispersing into it right away.
--------------------------==
Coffee: Thai Iced Coffee **
Strong, black ground coffee
Sugar
Evaporated (not condensed) milk
Cardamom pods
Prepare a pot of coffee at a good European strength (Miriam Nadel
suggests 2 tablespoons per cup, which I'd say is about right). In
the ground coffee, add 2 or 3 freshly ground cardamom pods. (I've
used green ones, I imagine the brown ones would give a slightly
different flavor.) Sweeten while hot, then cool quickly.
Serve over ice, with unsweetened evaporated milk (or heavy cream
if you're feeling extra indulgent). To get the layered effect,
place a spoon atop the coffee and pour the milk carefully into
the spoon so that it floats on the top of the coffee.
--------------------------==
Coffee: Thai Iced Tea (from Keo's Thai Cuisine, by Keo Sananikone
~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ten Speed Press, ISBN 0-89815-183-X)
1/4 c strong Thai tea
1/2 c boiling water
2 t sweetened condensed milk
Ice cubes
Mint leavs (for garnish)
Combine Thai tea (i.e., the powder), boiling water, and sweetened
condensed milk; stir until blended. Pour into 2 tall glasses
filled with ice cubes. Garnish with mint leaves. Makes 2 servings.
--------------------------==
Coffee: Thai Iced Tea
Thai iced tea is made from a mixture of ingredients called "chaa".
You can get it at some Asian food stores. There is also Thai iced
coffee, made from a mixture called "oliang". Oliang is usually
made from coffee beans, roasted tamarind seeds, roasted corn,
and sesame seeds. Sorry, I don't know what goes into chaa,
except that one of the ingredients is yellow food coloring.
The following recipe will work for either Thai Iced Coffee or Thai
Iced Tea:
6 Tbs. oliang or chaa
6 cups boiling water
2 - 3 Tbs. sugar
1/4 - 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup evaporated milk
Finely grind the oliang or chaa mix in a coffee mill. Place in a filter
and drip as you would regular coffee. While still hot, add the sugar
and condensed milk. Let cool. Add evaporated milk and serve over ice.
--------------------------==
Coffee: THAI ICED TEA
3.5 c water
1/3 c Thai tea (no other explanation for tea type)
1/3 c sugar
1/3 c condensed milk
1/2 c half & half
Heat the water to boiling, then using four layers of cheesecloth as a
filter, pour the water through the tea _four_ times (Why? I don't know; I
plan on steeping the tea until it reaches the right color.). Set the tea
aside to cool. Mix together the remaining ingredients. Fill glasses with
crushed ice; pour milk/sugar mixture about 1/2 full into each glass;
carefully pour cooled tea over top to preserve separation. Serve.
----------------------------------
Coffee: THAI ICED TEA
This is from the book "Thai Home-Cooking From Kamolmal's Kitchen" by
William Crawford and Kamolmal Pootaraksa.
Thai tea is packed in 1 lb. cellophane packets; it has the texture
somewhat like instant coffee and a faint vanilla aroma. (I buy it at
an Asian market in town.)
1/2 c Thai tea
3 c Water
14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
1 1/2 c Evaporated milk or half-and-half
1. Place the tea in a bag of muslin or other fine cloth. Bring the
water to a rapid boil, pour it over the tea, and let it steep for 3
min. Pour the liquid back through the tea 5 or 6 times until it is a
deep orange color and is flavored strongly.
2. Strain the tea well, pressing out all the liquid that you can. Add
the sweetened condensed milk to the warm liquid and mix it well.
Allow the mixture to cool to room temp.
3. Just before serving, fill each glass with cracked ice and fill it
half to three quarters full of tea. Add evaporated milk or
half-and-half to fill the glass, and stir well.
Variation: If you prefer a darker colored and stronger flavored tea,
substitute 3/4 cup granulated sugar for the sweetened condensed milk.
----------------------------------
The recipe for Thai coffe is exactly the same as above except you use
1/3 c of Thai coffee in place of the tea.
--------------------------==
Coffee: Turkish Coffee
1. Put some arabica beans, some granulated sugar, and a non-trivial
number of cardamom seeds into the grinder and reduce to a fine
powder.
2. Put powder into an ibrik (a middle-eastern copper brewing kettle,
roughly triangular in shape with a long handle) together with some
water.
3. Bring to a boil (just until it spills over the sides of the ibrik and
deposits some grounds on the range burner). Let cool for several
minutes. Repeat this step twice more (enjoying that oh! so
distinctive burned
4. Pour into tiny cups, let stand a minute or two for the grounds to
settle into a sludge at the bottom, and sip the sweet brew until
mouth region encounters aforementioned sludge.
5. Get next section of Sunday paper, and repeat items 1-4. By Sunday
noon, a tremendous buzz will have happened, and you'll be ready to
conquer the world.
Adendum:
You forgot "bang the ibrik against the side of the range", which comes
right after removing it from the flame when it boils over. I'm not
sure but I think you're supposed to do this either 1 or 3 times on
each iteration.
--------------------------==
Coffee: Vietnamese Iced Coffee
Same coffee (see Melya)
Sweetened condensed (not evaporated) milk
Ice
Make even stronger coffee, preferably in a Vietnamese coffee maker.
(This is a metal cylinder with tiny holes in the bottom and a
perforated disc that fits into it; you put coffee in the bottom of
the cylinder, place the disc atop it, then fill with boiling water
and a very rich infusion of coffee drips slowly from the bottom.)
If you are using a Vietnamese coffee maker, put two tablespoons of
sweetened condensed milk in the bottom of a cup and put the coffee
maker on top of the cup. If you are making espresso or cafe filtre
(the infusion method where you press the plunger down through the
grounds after several minutes of infusion), mix the sweetened condensed
milk and the coffee any way you like.
When the milk is dissolved in the coffee (yes, dissolved *is* the
right word here!), pour the combination over ice and sip.

Coffee: Yogi Tea
By Siri Singh Sahib Harbhajan Singh Khalsa Yogiji
For each cup of tea, begin with 10 ounces of water. Bring the water
to a rapid boil and add (for each cup):
3 whole cloves
4 whole green cardamon pods
4 whole black peppercorns
1/2 stick cinnamon
1 slice fresh gingerroot (optional)
Let this boil, covered, for 15-20 mins (longer for larger amounts of
tea). Then add:
1/4 teaspoon of any black tea
1/2 cup cold dairy milk (per cup of liquid)
If you wish to make more than one quart, you will need less spices.
A good amount of spices to use for 2 quarts of Yogi Tea, is about 20
each of cardamom pods, peppercorns and 15 each of cloves. For cinnamon,
use about 3 sticks, and 1 T of black tea. Boil for at least 30 mins.
Use 1 quart of milk.
---------
Yogi Tea variations
Make a jar of spices cinnamon, cloves, cardamon, gingerroot (dry),
peppercorns, cherry bark, fennel seeds, anise, almonds, carob,
crystal malt...
Use about 2 T spice mix to a quart of water.
Black tea and milk are optional.
Add some honey when cooking.
Yogi Tea is also sold in your local health food store tea section.

Other: Atole con Honholi
This isn't a recipe. It is an interpretation of a demo a friend of mine
did for me. Atole is gruel. This comes out about like thin malt-o-meal.
You drink it.
Incidentally, I would say that America has a love affair with vanilla.
There is vanilla flavoring in just about everything remotely sweet. Now
Mexico uses cinnamon alot. Even in the chocolate. And in Atole con
Honholi (spelling uncertain my friend doesn't write stuff down).
.5 C sesame seeds (honholi), toast in a pan til just turning golden
grind in a blender until mealy, not floury
4 C water or milk
.5 C piloncillo (or dark brown sugar) or to taste. This is pretty sweet.
.25 masa harina (more or less, depending on how thick you want it)
1 tsp cinnamon
Bring seame seeds, water(or milk) brown sugar and cinnamon to a boil.
Sprinkle in masa harina (corn flour to you guys north of here)(thats
*flour* not meal) and stir constantly. Add more flour if you want it
thicker. Simmer for 5 minutes or so. Drink warm.
The last time I made this I toasted the masa harina lightly. Gave it a
little bit 'nuttier' flavor I think. And I prefer milk to water.

Vietnamese Coffee
Ingredients (1 servings)
Stephen Ceideburg
2 tb Sweetened Condensed Milk
6 oz Strong Black Coffee
Instructions
In restaurants and cafe, dark-roast coffee is brewed in an individual drip pot that sits on
top of a glass, slowly dripping into sweet milk. it takes a good 10 to 15 minutes for the water to finish dripping through, and the coffee is sipped at an equally leisurely
pace. Both the coffee and the pots are available in Southeast Asian markets, but any type of coffee and any brew- method that produces a strong, rich-tasting cup
will do. Place the milk in the bottom of an 8 ounce glass. Carefully pour in coffee, trying not to
disturb the layer of milk. Stir milk up from bottom and sip coffee. There will probably be some milk left in the bottom of the glass when you are finished.
Makes 1 serving.
Variation: This coffee may also be served iced. Add ice cubes on top of the sweet milk
and proceed as above. From the California Culinary Academy's "Southeast Asian Cooking", Jay Harlow, published

Coffee Adventure presents Coffee Recipes
Caffe Latte Add steamed milk (150-170 F) to a freshly drawn shot of espresso. Finish
with a quarter inch of foamed milk. NOTE: Some like to add the shot of espresso last. Pour slowly into the center of the cup. If desired, sprinkle with chocolate or
cinnamon.
Caffe Mocha Start with a long pour of mocha syrup to throughly coat the bottom of the
cup. Follow with a shot of espresso and then add steamed milk (150-170 F). Crown with a generous scoop of whipped cream and lightly sprinkle with sweet ground
cocoa.
Caramel Fudge Latte
Its basically a latte, except its got equal amounts of espresso and caramel fudge latte
(not that weak Torani stuff). Best way to do this is put the caramel into your dosing pitcher when dosing, then stir it up and pour it into either a glass of hot milk
(white or chocolate) or a glass of cold milk & ice. For some reason it tastes real good
with skim milk.... the whole milk and caramel together is almost too much. Of course you can also substitute some ice cream for the milk and throw it all in a blender
also. Without a doubt the tastiest espresso drink of all time.
Coffee Soda Adds a nice sparkle to your coffee.
1/2 cup coffee
Ice cubes
1/4 carbonated water or cola
Strip of lemon, lime, or orange peel
Pour coffee over ice and add carbonated water. Garnish.
Cowboy Coffee Heat fresh water over an open campfire. Add one fist-full of coffee for
each cup of water. Bring to a boil and then add a splash of cold water to settle the grounds. There is no such thing as strong coffee, only weak people.

Cafe Diablo
This showy drink combines spiced brandy, Grand Marnier, and a strong African roast
such as Kenyan or Sumatran. Mason's Restaurant used to create this popular drink
tableside, using a saucepan and igniting the brandy before ladling the potent drink into a
demitasse cup. It is no longer available at the restaurant (for the obvious fire-hazard reasons), but can certainly be recreated in your own home for special guests.
The proportions have been changed to accommodate a coffee mug.
1 12-ounce coffee mug, preheated
2 cubes sugar
1 1/2 jiggers brandy
1/2 jigger Grand Marnier
5-8 whole cloves
1 strip orange peel
1 strip lemon peel
8 ounces Kenyan or Sumatran brewed coffee
Gently heat all of the ingredients except the coffee in a chafing dish or, if one is not
available, a saucepan. Pour the hot coffee into coffee mug. The brandy should begin to
release its aroma after a few minutes. At this point, ignite the brandy and allow the flames to burn for 15-20 seconds, then ladle the brandy mixture over the hot coffee.
Mix the coffee and brandy together. serves one

twist of lemon peel

Cold Drinks
Coffee-Toffee Cooler
Although it can certainly stand on its own, this drink benefits from the addition of the
flavored syrup by adding a nice dimension to the taste. The Columbian and Mexican beans suggested in the recipe have a caramel-like flavor which compliments the
toffee in the ice cream.
Place the coffee, ice cream, flavored syrup and mineral water in a blender. Process until
smooth and frothy.
Pour into a chilled, tall glass. Top with whipped cream and toasted almonds. Serves one.
Rainforest Crunch Coffee Shake
Many of these ingredients come from the rainforest countries of South America. Not only
does this drink quench your desire for coffee, it is substantial enough to qualify for a quick and filling snack.
Chill the brown sugar-espresso mixture.
Place the chilled espresso, banana, brown sugar-espresso mixture, yogurt and cashew
butter in a blender. Process until smooth and thick. Add dried mango and Brazil nuts and stir to blend.
Pour into a tall chilled glass and top with coconut and dust with cocoa powder. Serves
one.
Coffee-Mint Frappe
A faint resemblance to the southern summer cooler, Mint Julep, because of the use of
sugar syrup and mint leaves, but much tastier. Fresh mint must be used or the results will be disappointing.
Allow sugar-water mixture to chill thoroughly.
Place coffee, sugar-water mixture, vanilla extract, heavy cream, frozen yogurt and
freshly minced mint leaves in a blender. Process until the mixture is thick and creamy.
Pour into a tall, chilled glass with ice and garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and top with the chocolate-coated coffee beans. Serves one.
Raspberry-Mocha Soda
Raspberries, chocolate and coffee have been incorporated into rich desserts for years.
I've taken those addictive ingredients a step farther and put them to good use in this fresh, sparkling drink. Ethiopian beans have been described as exhibiting a fruity,
winy taste.
Place all ingredients except the fresh raspberries and cocoa powder in a blender and
process until foamy and well-mixed.
Pour into a chilled, tall glass and stir in the whole raspberries to disperse evenly
throughout the shake. Sprinkle with the cocoa powder. Serves one.
Vanilla-Coffee Frostee
Puree all ingredients except the ground coffee beans in a blender until smooth. Pour into
a tall, chilled glass and garnish with a dusting of the finely ground coffee beans. Serves one.

Chocolate Covered Coffee Dreams
Ingredients:
We recommend the following coffees for this recipe: 62 Continental, Indio Noir, or Turkish
Blend. Whites of 4 large eggs 2 1/2 cups dark brown sugar 1 cup chopped nuts ( If desired; we suggest Pecans,
Macadamias, Walnuts, or Black Walnuts.)
1/4 cup corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup triple strength coffee 3 to 5 lbs Melting Chocolate (your choice of dark, milk, or
white chocolate. Please check our Chocolate page for several fine melting chocolates. )
Instructions:
Butter the sides of a heavy 2 qt saucepan. Put the sugar, corn syrup, salt and coffee in it
and cook on high stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a boil.
Cook, to a hard ball stage (260? without stirring. Remove from heat.
Working quickly, (use a very large, chilled glass or metal bowl for the egg whites) beat
the egg whites till stiff peaks form. Pour the hot syrup in a thin stream over the beaten egg whites while beating on high
speed with the mixer.Continue beating mixture at high speed until it forms soft peaks and
begins to lose it's gloss. Add the nuts and beat thoroughly for 5 more minutes.
Allow to cool slightly, cover the bowl, then put in the freezer to chill.
In the top of a double boiler, slowly heat the melting chocolate stirring constantly until it
is thoroughly melted. Put waxed paper on several cookie sheets.
Remove the bowl from the freezer and, with a teaspoon, drop a heaping teaspoon full of
the cold mixture in the melted chocolate.(Don't spear the candy... scoop it carefully from the chocolate!) Working quickly, use two forks to remove the dipped candy from the
chocolate and place on the waxed paper. Repeat the process until all the mixture is gone.
Pour the remaining dipping chocolate in a buttered pie pan to cool. It can be reheated..
Allow the candies to cool. The chocolate coating on the dipped candies will harden as it
cools. Store in a covered container in a cool place or in the refrigerator if desired.

Cappuccino
The word evokes visions of this delicious frothy espresso and milk confection topped with
whipped cream and delicately sprinkled with powdered cinnamon. And yet, Cappuccino can be and is, far more than that. The ideal cappuccino is one third each of
espresso, steamed milk, and frothy foam.
What is the history of Cappuccino? Although nobody knows for sure, common belief is that
it is named for the robes and cowl of the Capuchin monks habit. Whether the Capuchin monks were the originators of this exquisite hot beverage is unknown and
tradition tells us that a properly prepared cappuccino of espresso and steamed milk leaves
a brown ring along the rim of the cup much like the edge of the monks cowl.

Espresso
Espresso coffee is not new to the peoples of Southern Europe. For generations they have
been enjoying the flavor and boost of the strong, sharply flavored coffee in small demitasse cups. Usually the espresso is drunk with sugar and fills only two-thirds
of the demitasse cup. On occasion, the espresso is flavored with a drop or two of tangerine or almond extract.
Like any espresso drink, perfection begins with the espresso. The important thing is that
espresso is not a coffee bean, a roast, or a blend of coffee beans. Espresso is a coffee beverage made fresh upon request using proper temperature and pressure to
extract only the finest qualities of the coffee bean. The coffee beans are fresh ground for
each cup and the espresso extraction is a precise art form. Thus, espresso is a method of brewing coffee and not a type of coffee.
With the wide variety of coffees available today, the espresso of yesteryear has become
an incredible gourmet treat rivaling the most delectable of desserts. Espresso has come into it¡¯s own.
The Key to perfect espresso is timing, as over extracting the coffee liquor causes a thin
bitter drink. Better to have three ounces of fine espresso than 8 to 12 ounces of watery bitter coffee. It is, after all, the richness and flowery aroma of espresso that
makes it such an exciting drink.
There are those who will probably throw their hands up in horror at the idea of using
flavored coffees to make espresso. We at Dream Ship have enjoyed all kinds of exquisite coffees, flavored and non flavored, as espresso. Each has it¡¯s own particular
flavor notes that make it an unique experience. In fact, We have often enjoyed an in-house espresso party where we served several different types of coffee,
espresso roasted and full city roasted, espresso brewed. All were appreciated for their own unique qualities.
Several recipes have evolved from these coffee gatherings and each month we will share
a new one with you.
Espresso Indio Noir
grind the Indio Noir in a fine espresso grind
make the espresso in the usual way and froth 1 ounce half & half at the same time to a
thick froth
have available the following complimentary accents:
Torani or Monin caramel and orgeat (almond) syrups.
Dark brown sugar, turbinado sugar, raw sugar, and Demerara sugar.
Cappuccino accent toppers: Original and chocolate.
Present the demitasse 2/3 full of espresso and allow each person to add their own cream,
flavors, sugar, and toppings.
Indio Noir is our most popular espresso roast. It makes a delicious cup of espresso and a
delightfully different regular coffee.
Note: for an added twist of delicious flavor, twist a strip of tangerine peel into your
espresso¡¦WOW!
Caffe` Latte
Caff?latte as we Americans know it is far different from it¡¯s European counterpart. In
Europe, caff?latte consists of one part espresso and three parts frothed milk, the two poured simultaneously into a large bowl or wide mouth cup. It is the favorite
breakfast drink of southern Europeans.
Here in America we have our own version or versions depending on where we live and
who is making the latte. Usually the proportions are the same but, with the wide variety of flavorings available, an extra element is added to the latte which changes the
whole equation. Caff?latte is often one part espresso to two and one half parts frothed milk and the extra ?part is a flavoring. Then it is often topped with whipping
cream.
All in all, American Caff?Latte is almost a dessert with the delicious flavors, creams, and
toppings which make it sinfully decadent. In keeping with the idea of exploring new and flavorful delights, we offer these recipes for you to try.
Please check back often as we will be posting a new recipe every month.

How to make good coffee
Preparing a good cup of coffee should be easy - you're simply combining ground beans
with water until the brew is drinkable. But the variations in technique are almost infinite - and the quality depends on sure-handed knowledge. Different coffee
models will require different techniques, but here are a few helpful tips for all makes:
Coffee is perishable. Make a cup as soon as possible after opening the jar or packet.
Coffee can pick up odours. Maintain the unique taste by storing coffee in an air-tight
container. To keep it fresh for even longer some people recommend you to put it in the
fridge or freezer (others say never put the coffee in the fridge or freezer - the choice is really up to you!).
Measure the coffee and water accurately; two level teaspoons of coffee to six ounces
water.
Be sure your coffee is fresh and your coffeemaker is clear. The lime deposits that build
up in the pot can be removed with a strong solution of vinegar and water.
Choose the correct grind for your machine. Draw fresh water from the cold tap. Hot water
can pick up impurities in the pipes, and water that has been sitting loses its oxygenation. Make sure your water is hot, but not boiling, for the best mix of grind and
water.
Remove the brew basket containing the grounds immediately. Don't keep the coffee in the
brewer or on a hot plate for more than forty-five minutes.

serve with a long spoon.

An espresso consists of about 1 1/2 ounces of extremely strong coffee. It is made with a
dark-roasted bean, using either a stove-top espresso maker or an electric machine. It serves as the basis for many gourmet coffee drinks, both hot and cold, and
has many variations. Add almond, rum, brandy, mint, or vanilla extract to taste, if desired. You can also sprinkle spices such as ground cinnamon and cardamom onto your
espresso.
Ristretto
A "short" espresso. Use the same amount of grounds as for a single espresso, but stop
the flow of water at about 1 ounce.
