I was listening to one of my 100+ "Splendid Table" podcasts the other night while waiting in the long line of traffic to get out of the Verizon Center parking garage (after a Caps win!) and heard the most interesting recipe for iced coffee.
Lynne Rossetto Kasper, the show's host, suggested taking a pound of coffee beans, grinding them at a medium setting, mixing the grounds with 11 cups of cold water, and letting the mixture sit on the counter for about 12 hours. Strain out the grounds and you get a coffee concentrate that has no acidity, can be used in a number of interesting ways and can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
I'm thinking coffee concentrate and vodka. Or coffee concentrate and Bailey's. She said it's also wonderful over ice cream and can be frozen to make coffee granita.
Any other ideas?
