In den traditionellen Küchen Thailands und Indiens, die für den Einsatz gesundheitsfördernder Zutaten sowie für ihre komplexen, aromatischen Gewürzmischungen bekannt sind, nimmt Kokosmilch einen zentralen Platz in unzähligen Rezepten ein. Ihre cremige Textur und der leicht süßliche, exotische Geschmack harmonieren perfekt mit scharfen Gewürzen in Suppen und Currys ebenso wie mit zarten Desserts, denen sie eine besondere Tiefe und Ausgewogenheit verleiht. Diese weiße, sämige Flüssigkeit, die durch das Auspressen des reifen Kokosnussfleischs gewonnen wird, bietet nicht nur ein einzigartiges Geschmackserlebnis, sondern auch eine Fülle wertvoller Nährstoffe. Entdecken Sie, welche Vorteile die Integration dieses vielseitigen Produkts in die tägliche Ernährung mit sich bringt und welche kulinarischen Techniken es ermöglichen, sein volles Potenzial auszuschöpfen.
Coconut milk
The liquid hidden inside the hard nut, contrary to mistaken belief, is not coconut milk, but a juice that resembles the plasma composition of the blood. Coconut Milk can be found in a store hidden in a metal can, which after a long period of time tends to break down into two phases: solid, in the form of cocoa fat, and liquid juice. Manufacturers often add unnecessary preservatives and sugar to make the product last longer in the packaging.
Coconut milk is the recipe
Coconut milk production is not a complicated activity. I encourage everyone to try their hand at this field! We need a barrel of fresh coconut or about 1 glass of coconuts that we get in the store (before we buy, let's just check if the barrel is not sweetened with white sugar!) and about 1 liter of water.
Coconut milk properties
In reference to the whole coconut fruit, which is high in MCT fatty acids, coconuts milk owes them an asymmetrical and dense consistency, as well as a lot of healthy fats: linoleic, stearin, lauryl and caprilic. It does not contain cholesterol, and because of its medium-length fatty acid content, it quickly reaches the liver and uses its own energy, so it will not be stored in the form of saturated fats. In addition, it has vitamin C, vitamin K and vitamin B complexes. Coconut milk contains more calcium and magnesium as a source of salt, phosphorus, and manganese.
Coconut milk use
Coconut milk has a very wide range of uses, ranging from preparing delicious meals to 100 ml, which is about as much as a healthy portion of coconut as a cosmetic product. Let's boldly replace cow's milk with milk made from cocoa beans or cocoa butter. If we make our own milk from about 1 litre of water and glasses (about 90 g) of cocoa powder, the calorie content of the product will be about 50 kcal per 100 ml. That's about the same as the hygienic portion that is also used in cosmetics.
