About Nuts, coconut milk, canned (liquid expressed from grated meat and water)
The coconut (Cocos nucifera) is the large, hard-shelled fruit of the tropical coconut palm, a single seed wrapped in fibrous husk that yields an entire pantry of foods. Inside the brown, woody shell is firm white meat lining a hollow center filled with refreshing coconut water. The meat is rich and slightly sweet, prized for its tropical flavor and high content of healthy plant fats, along with fiber, manganese, and copper.
Fresh or dried, the meat is shredded for baking, curries, and candies, pressed into rich coconut milk and cream, and rendered into coconut oil, while the clear water inside young green coconuts is a popular natural drink. Mature brown coconuts give meat and oil, and young green ones give the sweetest water. Choose a coconut that feels heavy and sloshes with liquid, and refrigerate the meat or water once the shell is opened.
