Discover how easy it is to make your own homemade coconut milk. No additives, just pure creamy bliss for all your recipes, coffee add-ons & smoothies!
Unlock the nutritional powerhouse of coconut milk with this easy-to-follow recipe featuring Nutterie's unsweetened coconut shreds. Renowned for its health-boosting properties, coconut milk is a treasure trove of essential nutrients, including medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which promote heart health and boost metabolism. By harnessing the natural goodness of coconut shreds, this homemade coconut milk recipe delivers a creamy and indulgent dairy-free alternative that's rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
Whether you're aiming to enhance your immune system, support digestion, or nourish your skin and hair, incorporating coconut milk into your diet offers a myriad of benefits. Join us as we embark on a journey to create a velvety-smooth coconut milk that not only tantalizes your taste buds but also nourishes your body from the inside out.
Preparation: Before you begin, ensure your blender is high-powered and capable of blending hard ingredients smoothly. Ensure you have a strainer bag for nut milks.
Soak the Coconut Shreds: Place the unsweetened coconut shreds in a bowl and cover them with 4 cups of filtered water. Let them soak for at least 30 minutes to soften the coconut and make it easier to blend.
Blend the Coconut: After soaking, transfer the soaked coconut shreds along with the soaking water into your high-powered blender.
Blend Until Smooth: Start blending on low speed, gradually increasing to high speed. Blend for about 2-3 minutes or until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
Strain (Optional but recommended): If you prefer a smoother coconut milk, you can strain the blended mixture through a nut milk bag or fine mesh sieve to remove any remaining coconut pulp. This step is optional and depends on your preference for texture.
Store: Transfer the freshly made coconut milk to a clean glass jar or container with a tight-fitting lid. Store it in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days.
Enjoy: Use your homemade coconut milk in various recipes like smoothies, curries, soups, desserts, or simply enjoy it on its own!
Tips
Adjust the water-to-coconut ratio based on your desired thickness of coconut milk. More water will result in a thinner consistency, while less water will yield a thicker, creamier milk.
For added flavour, you can include a pinch of salt or a splash of vanilla extract during the blending process.
Shake or stir the coconut milk before each use as it may naturally separate when stored in the refrigerator.
Feel free to sweeten your coconut milk with a natural sweetener like maple syrup or honey if desired, although keep in mind that this will no longer make it unsweetened.
