Spice Up! Coconut Milk gives a full and rich taste to food. Coconut milk is a good alternative for dairy. It can be used like normal cream or milk in sauces, curries, stews, soups, baking, desserts and drinks. Coconut milk is made of coconut meat which is the white flesh inside coconuts. Once cold the milk goes solid but will be liquid after warming or shaking. No monkey labour has been used to collect coconuts.
