Traditional Coconut Milk
- Reviews 1
Ready In: 15 mins
Yields: 1-2 cups
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh coconut, shredded
- 1 1⁄4 cups hot water (or as needed)
Directions
- In a blender (or food processor fitted with the metal blade), process the coconut and hot water for about 2 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes.
- Strain the mixture through a coffee filter into a small bowl, pressing down hard on the solid grated coconut flesh to squeeze out all the liquid. For thinner milk, add a little more water.
- Use immediately in any recipe calling for coconut milk. This does not store well because it loses flavor quickly.
