Polish Style Coffee


Would you like a cup of kava?

"Tak, Tak, Prosze", I reply.

The Poles make coffee
very strong, like the Greeks. In a tall flat bottomed glass, they place one or two large spoonfuls of coffee grounds. Pour boiling water over the coffee, add a little bit of sugar or a lot, then let the coffee steep. If you want milk or cream, pour it slowly right before your ready to drink the coffee

Of course, some Poles have an electric coffee makers with filters but I found the opposite to be true among the several of my cousins. I was careful not to drink all the coffee and leave the sludge at the bottom of the cup.
