Tastes like espresso but is a thousand times easier to make. Who else loves this stuff?

Is this the moral equivalent of Turkish coffee? That stuff is delicious.

Yeah I think they're exactly the same, though the two countries would never admit it.

They're both good for fortune telling by reading the grounds left at the bottom of the coffee cup.

for a few years I was responsble for a sales office in the balkans - all ex-yug, greece, turkey, and a few other places. each one refered to the coffee as their coffee "greek", "macedonian" "serbian" etc. it was pretty funny
aside from that, my favorite is what you can get in Lebanon and Jordan - with cardomon. in parts of arabia they mix even more spices in it, and sometimes serve it green, that I like less.

+1 ...Great stuff whether you call it Greek or Turkish or whatever (as a Greek I'm obliged to call it Greek though). Also very good when you have a bit of a sore stomach. Mum has this set of pots and she swears by them (I've been trying to track down another set for her). http://www.kinox.com/eng/list_food.p...id=4&cat_id=27 I'd stay away from copper and other painted varieties as these can discolour over time, even on the inside of the pots which is obviously not a good thing.

First added cardamom to a very small amount of water and let it heat up, added finely-ground fresh roast beans and water, brought to boil and scooped the frother layer into bottom of cup. took off heat, added a pinch of evaporated cane sugar, and brought to boil--repeated this total of 3 timems--then poured into cup. worked out pretty well.

the system when I was in the army was 7 times. I can't say that it is any better that 3 times, but when you are in the army, you have time on your hands.
