Ethiopian Coffee Ceremony:
Preparation
The host begins by washing the green coffee beans and roasting them over a charcoal brazier or stove. The beans are then ground using a traditional wooden mortar and pestle. The host adds the ground coffee to a jebena, a traditional clay coffee pot, and heats the water. The coffee is brewed in three rounds, each with its own name and significance.
Pouring
The coffee is poured into small ceramic cups called finjal, using a horsehair filter to keep the grounds out. The coffee is poured in a thin stream to create a “ring” in the cup. The ceremony is a time for gathering, and it typically occurs without phones, screens, or television.
