Filtered Coffee

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no cooking times; the times in the steps were added in transcription, so check for doneness rather than trusting the clock.

  1. Scald the coffee pot and keep it hot.

  2. Place a cloth strainer inside the top of the coffee pot.

  3. Add the ground coffee to the strainer.

  4. Slowly pour boiling water over the coffee.

  5. Close the lid and let it steam for 5 minutes.

  6. Remove the strainer and serve.

Recipe from a historical cookbook (Internet Archive).

Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
