Let's see the simple step-by-step procedure to obtain an excellent Chicory Decoction.
Needed to prepare the decoction
As with all other types of decoction and infusion what we need is:
- a substance from which to extract the drink
in our case, of course, it is chicory root - water
- a saucepan in which to boil everything
- a small mesh filter
Preparation of the decoction / infusion
The steps to make it are simple:
- Fill the saucepan with water and bring it to a boil
- Add the ground chicory root powder.
You can adjust the doses by eye, depending on how you would like the final drink (more or less charged).
For a regular long coffee, consider 🥄 2-3 generous spoons of chicory root powder per 1 liter of water. 💧 - Let it boil for at least 15 minutes ⏲
- Using a tightly meshed strainer infuser, filter the entire contents of the saucepan, pouring the resulting drink into a teapot, carafe or other large container.
