Préparation onctueuse à base de noix de coco râpée et d'eau chaude, idéale pour agrémenter vos créations culinaires quotidiennes.

# What You'll Need:

→ Main Ingredients

01 - 7 ounces unsweetened shredded coconut
02 - 4 cups hot water (not boiling)

# How to Make It:

01 - Place shredded coconut in blender. Pour hot water over coconut. Blend on high speed for 2-3 minutes until mixture becomes homogenous and creamy.
02 - Line a large bowl with cheesecloth or clean kitchen towel. Pour blended mixture into cloth. Gather edges and squeeze firmly to extract all liquid, pressing coconut pulp thoroughly.
03 - Transfer coconut milk to clean glass bottle using funnel. Seal tightly. Refrigerate immediately. Shake well before each use. Keeps for up to 4 days.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Fresh coconut milk tastes completely different from anything store bought with a richness that transforms curries and morning coffee alike
  • It costs a fraction of the price and you control exactly what goes into your milk with no preservatives or additives
02 -
  • The coconut milk will naturally separate in the refrigerator so give it a vigorous shake before each use
  • Do not throw away the leftover pulp which can be dried in a low oven and used for baking or added to oatmeal
03 -
  • Use boiling water that has cooled for 2 minutes for optimal extraction without bitterness
  • Invest in a proper nut milk bag as cheesecloth can be frustratingly slow and messy for repeated use
