COFFEE CREAM
Take three cups of good clear coffee, sweeten it well and boil with it a pint of
cream until reduced one-third.
COFFEE
Old Java and Mocha are the best coffees. A coffee roaster is the best thing to
roast coffee in, but an iron pot is very good; coffee should be dried gradually
before being roasted. "Dripped" coffee is the French mode, but many make it in
the old-time way by boiling. It is a matter of personal taste, not to be
interfered with in this "land of the free." To make dripped coffee we grind a
cupful for four persons, put this ground coffee in the top of the dripper and
pour on half a pint of boiling water. It is served with boiling milk at
breakfast.
