I have a friend who was born and raise in Morocco, and this is how she 
makes it. It is made rather like Turkish coffee, without the sugar and 
spices. ( sometimes a little cinnamon, just a stir or two, with a stick, but 
I suspect that is not traditional. )

I thought salted coffee was a bit strange, but it has an interesting 
effect on the palate, and seems to make the taste of oranges and other
fruits "pop" without lessening the sweetness. It is marvelous with Toasted 
Almond Ice Cream.

Salted coffee is indeed drunk, and at this time in history, at least in one 
village in Morocco, and, until recently, in one office building in Stamford, 
CT.
