If you have some time on your hands and
want to try something completely different, make yourself and your closest friends some
'Egg Coffee'.
Here's how to do it:
-
Get six cups of good clean water
boiling in something resembling a porcelain coffee pot.
-
While that's happening, gingerly beat
one large egg in a cup, and save the eggshell (we'll need that).
-
Add a smidgen of salt to the beaten
egg.
-
Spoon seven tablespoons of your
favorite ground coffee (Scandinavian blend to be consistent) into another cup, add 1/3 of
the beaten egg and about a 1/3 of the eggshell, crushed, into the coffee grounds. Mix it
into a potting-soil like um, paste.
-
Add this potting-soil like mixture to
the rapidly boiling water, and stir.
-
Bring the whole thing to a boil again
for a couple minutes and then turn the heat down to simmer.
-
If you're lucky and the Scandinavian
coffee gods have been appeased, the grounds will sink to the bottom of the pot.
-
Pour the tasty brew off the top into
your favorite mug and ascend to the heights of coffeedom. If the coffee gods were not
appeased and your grounds won't sink, you'll have to filter the brew but it comes out
almost as good.
-
Find somebody to do the dishes and go
riding.
