The Wonder of Coconut

Coconuts are a versatile fruit seed from the palm tree. Often used in flavoring Indian and Vietnamese cuisine, the coconut has a variety of culinary uses:

  • Coconut Oil is praised for its stability when cooking dishes like stir fry.
  • Coconut Water is the juice found inside a fresh, ripe coconut. Refreshing and sweet, it is gaining popularity as a replenishing sports drink.
  • Coconut Milk is made from the white meat or pulp of the coconut and is used in cooking to thicken and bring a touch of sweetness to spicy dishes.
  • Shredded Coconut comes from the white pulp of fresh coconut which is grated or shredded for use in baking or cooking.
