Coconut is the most famous tropical fruit in the world and one of the most cultivated. From this fruit, different ingredients are obtained, such as coconut milk, coconut oil, coconut flour, grated coconut …
Coconut is a fresh, tasty and very versatile fruit; In fact, it is very easy to use it for cooking, to make cakes, ice cream or shakes or for salty preparations. Personally, coconut milk and coconut oil are two of my favorite cooking ingredients and both are full of healthy fats; In addition, coconut oil is one of the best choices when it comes to frying as it resists very well at high temperatures.
