When life gives you a coconut, make…? #shorts

The chef's enthusiasm is as addictive as his recipes!

It's amazing to think that every part of the coconut plant can be used. The roots, trunk, leaves, and all parts of it's fruit. Literally nothing is wasted.

Even though I'm not vegan, just being able to discover all these traditional vegan dishes from your channel is amazing

as a malayali, I own more than 20 coconut trees (I'm not lying i swear on my mother) and we hire a professional to climb on the coconut trees and he will collect coconuts and he will cut, milk and serve it. I love him he's soo kind

That Tembleque brought back SO MANY childhood memories! On a hot evening in San Juan, I'd have some Tembleque and a glass of iced Papaya Nectar and watch the sun set. Life was so much simpler then

🇵🇷 🇵🇷 🇵🇷 thank you for highlighting Puerto Rican cuisine! Limbers can also be made vegan too, and use coconut and cinnamon 🥥 they’re a frozen desert like a popsicle, but traditionally served in a plastic cup. You can also make them with fruit juice.

As a Puertorican, I was like “wait a second, isn’t that….”

You then say “Traditional Puertorican tembleque”


“IT TEMBLEQUE!!”

I was genuinely excited

As a Sri Lankan, I absolutely love this! It’s such a normal thing in our culture ❤️🥹

[enceeteebae]

Being a Sri Lankan, we use coconut milk like that for curries EVERY day but i just realized that i have never drank coconut milk like that 😅

[PaolaGarcia-npzv]

I'm gonna cry!! That was a beautiful Tembleque❤

In India we take 2 milks. first is blending the coconut with no water and extracting. second one is adding water to the pulp after first milk extraction and then extracting. the first one tastes the second one is good to eat with appams and dosa with some sugar

In the Philippines, we have a similar dish called Maja Blanca. Almost the same ingredients: coconut milk, sugar, salt, and cornstarch. We also add evaporated milk and cream of corn. Stir over heat until the mixture thickens. Transfer to a mold and allow to set. Top with some crushed peanuts. It can be eaten while warm, or it can be chilled first. Either way, it's a comforting, heartwarming dessert! 🤤
Love from 🇵🇭

Tip: If you want your coconut milk tastes good, blend them with the coconut water you took. trust me, it's much thicker and tastier

He is speaking truth, coconut milk from scratch really is different from those "coconut milk" from supermarket, super different

[Ponytown]

Damn never heard of tembleque, looks amazing

[whiepanda]

It made me so happy that you know what Tembleque is. I sometimes add in a little shredded coconut to it

[lyssums]

I discovered tembleque recently and I can't get enough of it. I even made it myself like this with fresh coconut milk and compared it to canned. So much better, truly.

That's the coconut milk I remember drinking as a child in the Caribbean Island. Brings back childhood memories... The grated flesh leftover from the first squeezed milk, was cooked with: a little water, sugar cane with cinnamon and anis stars to make coconut sweets (resembling macaroons). The best dessert ever!!!
