You can also sprinkle onto cakes, into muesli etc.
Coconut powder can be sprinkled into curries, desserts, cake mixes, muesli mixes or into rice dishes. This coconut powder is pure with no other ingredients. It has a naturally sweet coconut taste that works particularly well in Thai cuisine.
This coconut powder is ground into pieces around 0.5mm, which places it somewhere in between coconut flour and desiccated coconut.
Directions
In curries or Thai dishes: Add coconut powder towards the end of cooking, as too much heating affects the flavour of coconut. Sprinkle with the fingers to avoid the powder from clumping together.
In rice: Mix this coconut powder with rice before cooking to create an authentic coconut rice. Some people even add a little coconut milk to the water.
In cake mixes: This coconut powder adds a pleasant coconut "bite" when added to cake mixes. It can also be sprinkled onto the tops of cakes, as a decoration.
In desserts: Coconut powder adds a thick consistency to desserts. Try it with semolina puddings.
In muesli mixes: Coconut powder can be used in muesli or porridge, where it will absorb some of the milk and create a thicker consistency.
Desiccated coconut has a coarser grain size (about 1-2mm) than coconut powder. As you would expect from us, this desiccated coconut is organic and pure.
