What is creamed coconut? And how to use it

[resueah]

Thank you, a package of this was passed on to me some time ago and I had no idea how to use it. This was very helpful and clear :) Now I am excited to use my creamed coconut immediately!

Thanks for the clarification, Trinity! I bought a block of this a while back, and it's been sitting in my cupboard. Now I know what to do with it. I love your channel! Thank you for the inspiration.

This video was the only one I could find about creamed coconut... all the others were about coconut cream! I'm on a hormone balancing meal plan for a couple of weeks and one of the recipes called for this. The brand I got is exactly the same as what you are showing... so it was easy to follow you and see what to do with it... I LOVE just popping a few chunks in my mouth and chewing them like a treat when I'm craving sweets. I keep the chunks in the fridge and just add to my meals or beverages as I like.

Thank you for this. I'd bought that for making a thai curry and was stumped

[lovediamonds]

I use in my shakes and in the cereal and also full spoon before going to bed easy on stomach and loosing weight

You can get this in the Caribbean section of all large supermarkets in the UK. I didn't know this was the same thing as 'coconut butter'. So really good to know, thanks.

Great Vid! Was wondering what was the difference between the two parts, never occurred to me that it would be solidified coconut oil :)

Hi Trinity,

Thank you so much in advance Trinity

I love how you talk! You could be describing a brick and I would still enjoy it

[FaithUkwuomah]

Is it possible to make coconut cream out of it?

[annettewass]

how much of the block would you use to make the equivalent of a tin of coconut milk ie 400 ml ?

[neorich]

Brilliant. Thanks for this. My mum used to always have this around and used it in curries, but I think she poured boiling water over it to melt it before adding.
I use a small (ready) tin of it that you can buy from Tesco's, which I use in curries, at the last minute, but since the advent of You Know What, they don't seem to be stocking it.
So, I went to one of the Asian stores in my city and asked and sure enough, they had it in block form.
They also had plenty of rice btw! 😉😉
What I needed to know was can I just chop it up and add some to the curry without diluting it, so thanks, once again!

2 blocks of creamed coconut have been in my fridge. Little boy needs to eat foods which are non-dairy and gluten-free. Thank you so much for your information. So generous of you. Now to decide which recipe to make... :D

[musictime]

Thank you for the clarification! I have one pack at home and would like to do whipped cream with it do you think it would work? All the recipes I see call for coconut cream. Thanks!

[crazyfunny]

Thank you telling how to use it. Could I use it too for a cake? I want to make cream for my birtday cake. How can I use creamed coconut? Or do I need another product?

[robertdasilva]

1 part creamed coconut with 4 – 5 parts water (100 g / 3½ oz creamed coconut + 400 ml of hot water).
