The Silver Turks
(5)Silver Turks as a gift
For those who can't imagine their morning without freshly brewed coffee in the Oriental way, there is no better gift than a jewelry turk (dzhezva). Made of precious silver and decorated with the author's coinage, it makes the process of making a drink a real magic.
What is the advantage of a silver jezva?
Silver has a phenomenal thermal conductivity. Due to this, the water is heated evenly from all sides, and the coffee oils and flavors are extracted slowly and correctly, creating a thick, dense foam.
Is it safe to use silver for cooking?
Absolutely. Unlike copper, which requires mandatory internal tinning, 925 sterling silver is chemically neutral, safe when heated, and does not react with food acids.
Who is suitable for such a luxurious gift?
An expensive handmade turk is a status gift for a true gourmet and coffee lover. It is ideal as a surprise for a boss, a respected doctor or a business partner.
