Coconut Milk

Coconut milk is the liquid that comes from the grated pulp of a mature coconut.[1] The opacity and rich taste of coconut milk are due to its high oil content, most of which is saturated fat. Coconut milk is a popular food ingredient used in several countries. Coconut milk is distinguished from coconut water by its thicker consistency and milkier appearance. Unlike coconut water, which is the liquid found directly inside a coconut,[2]coconut milk is the result of crushing coconut meat.
