طريقة التحضير

خطوة بخطوة

1. 1

   Fill the bottom chamber of a moka pot with water, up to the fill line.

   حوالي 1 د

2. 2

   Add the espresso ground coffee to the filter basket, leveling it gently without tamping.

   حوالي 1 د

   ملاحظة الطاهي: Do not press the coffee down too firmly, as this can impede the brewing process.

3. 3

   In a small heatproof cup, combine the sugar and a small splash of the first few drops of hot coffee that emerge from the moka pot. Stir vigorously to create a pale, thick paste called 'espumita'.

   حوالي 2 د

   ملاحظة الطاهي: The key to a good espumita is to use only a tiny amount of the initial, highly concentrated coffee with the sugar.

4. 4

   Place the moka pot on medium-high heat and allow the coffee to brew completely. As soon as the coffee finishes brewing, remove the pot from the heat.

   حوالي 3 د

   ملاحظة الطاهي: Watch the moka pot closely to prevent the coffee from over-extracting and becoming bitter.

5. 5

   Pour the brewed coffee into the cup with the espumita, stirring gently to combine. The hot coffee will help the foam rise and mix.

   حوالي 1 د

6. 6

   If desired, warm the plant milk and add it to the coffee.

   حوالي 1 د

   ملاحظة الطاهي: This step is optional but adds a touch of creaminess.

7. 7

   Serve immediately in small demitasse cups.
