Add Chiekory

The first thing 10 do is 70 add

DRY 10 your pound of coffee.
Mix thoroughly. The chicory
doesn't change the favor Of the
coffee. but il does hold all Of
the flavor, prevents the evapo-
ration of the coffee's essential
oils. keeps the coffee at original
strength
Best method Of preparing this
stretched-out coffee is the old
fashioned coffee pot with drip
bag, or a pot designed for drip
coffee.
Don't set your pot on the
open fire. but in a pan Of boiling
water. Put a full teaspoonful
Of ground coffee for each cup Of
water. Sprinkle over the cof-
fee a bit of salt. Then. using
briskly boiling water. pour IL
over a little at a time and let
il drip through.
Repeat Performances
When all Of the water Is
through the coffee, start repour-
NC the coffee rough the
grounds, cup at ~ time, until
you think the liquid has passed
over the coffee four or five
times.
/ know you have been told
that the water should pass
through only once, but, my
friends, that is the bunk! Take
that from one who knows his
coffee.
Make your coffee this way and
you'll find that you have a
strong. rich black brew that is
havorful and completely salts
flying. And for heavens sake
don't throw away any Of the
LIQUID that's left. II can be re-
heated perfectly If you set the
pot again in a pan Of water and
