| Кто как варит кофе в джезве? |
[Dec. 9th, 2002|08:34 am] |
Я пришёл к такому способу. Ставлю джезву на огонь, разогреваю немного (секунд 20). Сыплю сахар, ровным слоем по донышку. Секунд через 10 сыплю кофе. Заливаю водой.
В других источниках я видел рекомендации засыпать кофе последним, но у меня он всё равно поднимается, зато возникает немного другой оттенок вкуса. Или так кажется.
По результатам моих недавних поисков в сети, джезва, она же турка, по-английски называется Jezva, Cezve, Gezve, Ibrik, Ibriq, Briki, Mpriki (это греческий вариант), Rakwa, Dalla, Finjan, Fingan, Fingal. Картинки на http://www.arabicslice.com/tradutensils.html и http://jupiter.math.unc.edu/~comech/tools/Cezve.html, обсуждение на http://jupiter.math.unc.edu/~comech/tools/Alt.coffee.cezve.html и, конечно, alt.coffee.
Update: А вот ещё интересные способы.

| CS Monitor: How Much Israel Cost the US |

"Christian Science" is a misnomer, but Christian Science Monitor is a mainstream US newspaper.
The stream is a little muddy.
Since 1973, Israel has cost the United States about $1.6 trillion. If divided by today's population, that is more than $5,700 per person. [...] This is an estimate by Thomas Stauffer, a consulting economist in Washington. How come? Here is how:
It has been getting $3 billion a year for years.
Adjusting the official aid to 2001 dollars in purchasing power, Israel has been given $240 billion since 1973, Stauffer reckons. In addition, the US has given Egypt $117 billion and Jordan $22 billion in foreign aid in return for signing peace treaties with Israel.
"Consequently, politically, if not administratively, those outlays are part of the total package of support for Israel," argues Stauffer Nice. Now, on to Arab oil embargo.
The US lost $420 billion (in 2001 dollars) of output as a result, Stauffer calculates. And a boost in oil prices cost another $450 billion. Skipping some, I will only mention what (t)he(y) have to say about private American donation to the Jewish cause in Israel:
Though private in origin, the money is "a net drain" on the United States economy, says Stauffer. But there is no accusation of blood used in matza (not the season, perhaps?) nor of the Jewish cabal making the world go round behind the scene. For which we should owe deepest gratitude to our Christian brothers. Happy monitoring!
