Coconut Milk

Also known as: Organic Coconut Milk

Coconut milk is a creamy white liquid made from simmering coconut pulp, which is the meat found inside the hard shell of a coconut. Coconut milk is a staple in many Southeast Asian dishes, including curries, soups, sauces, and desserts. The texture of coconut milk will vary depending on the ratio of coconut solids to water, with more water resulting in a thinner, lighter milk. Coconut milk can be substituted for regular milk in almost any recipe. Coconut milk is low in saturated fat and free of cholesterol. It is also a good source of vitamins C, E, B1, B3, B5, and B6, as well as iron, zinc, potassium, and magnesium.
