The benefits of coconut is endless. Coconut milk is not just for coconut rice darlings. It serves as a good replacement for diary milk in tea, coffee, baking, smoothies and lots more.

In addition to providing nutrients and its awesome taste, coconut milk contains beneficial fat called lauric acid, a medium-chain fatty acid that's easily absorbed and used by the body for energy.
.
Coconuts fatty acids are primarily saturated fats, but don't think these will raise your cholesterol levels and cause heart damage. Instead, they are known to actually do the opposite — coconut milk can help you lower cholesterol levels, improve blood pressure, and prevent heart attacks or a stroke amidst so many other benefits.

Coconut milk has a very sweet taste especially if you extract the milk from matured fresh coconuts; it is packed with the sweet, floral and nutty flavor which is different from dairy product, it is slightly sweet and has a light creamy consistency. Apart from using coconut milk for cooking, you can also use it to condition your hair and to nourish your skin. If you are looking for a simple way to make coconut milk at home then
follow the simple steps bellow.

Steps on how to make coconut milk at home

1. Crack open coconut and drain out the liquid, use a knife to remove the coconut flesh form the pod.
2. Rinse the coconut flesh under running water if there is a need and cut into tiny cubes
3. Bring the coconut into a blender, add water and blend on the highest speed into a smooth paste for 1 minute.
4. If you don’t have a blender, break the coconut flesh into the size you can handle.
5. Use a grater to grate the coconut into a smooth paste and set aside.
6. Place the blended coconut in a bowl, add 1 cup of lukewarm water to it and mix with your hands. Pass the mixed coconut milk over a very
fine colander or cheese cloth to strain the milk. Use your hand to press out all the liquid from the strainer.
7. Return the coconut flesh to the bowl and add another cup of water to it and mix, then strain out the coconut milk.
8. Make use of the coconut milk immediately or store in the fridge for about 3-4 days.
9. Since there are no preservatives or fillers added to the milk, the fat in the coconut milk may separate on the top if stored in the fridge,
you can scoop the fat out and use for any coconut cream recipe. Always remember to shake the coconut milk before using.
Also watch this quick video to see how:

Please what cup volume can one use?
This is very important.
1 litre of lukewarm water for the two processes or more?
Please enlightened me.


I want to learn how to prepare my own meals, I noticed it has more benefit to the health and also you can easily control everything about your nutritional life if you handle your cooking.

I'm currently 2/10 in cooking but ready to learn.
Can't quantify salt at all.........

Sorry dear this is coming late.

For now I don't really have a standard cup for my measurement , most time i simply use my eye lol! but will sure get one soon.

A standard cup is about 250ml, I made use of this popular medium custard container which measures about 540ml of water. This doubles the standard measuring cup though. You know the coconut was quite much so I had to double the quantity of water to extract more milk. If it was just one piece of coconut I would used half of that same container.

For the salt challenge, it is best you add a pinch at a time and taste to check if you're OK , then add a little more to adjust to your very taste. You don't have add 1 whole teaspoon at a time especially if you are adding other spices like maggi.

Hope this was helpful.

Very helpful.

Used to think the capacity of that medium custard container is 1000ml.
So all I have to simply do is use half filled lukewarm water of it if I have few nuts right?

Yes dear, especially if you want the milk to come out very creamy, but if you want to use the milk for coconut rice, you will have to add more water to extract as much as you want; at least 1 litre will do depending on the quantity of rice you are making.

UNIQUEISRAEL:
For some, to even get the coconut is the PROBLEM!

I don't think its difficult to get coconut, the only issue is the cost, but it depends where you're located. Like where I am one medium coconut is #300 and its not funny at all.
