[@gaiasophia9598]

I would love to try this in My Homemade Dehydrated Leathers!

[@Modernist_Pantry]

great idea!

@@Modernist_Pantry Oh my Goddess I am so so so excited and I can't thank you enough! I just bought my first product from you a few weeks ago and am so happy to have found your wonderful company! Huge Grattitude!

[@susanroca7859]

What a sunshine-y, happy ingredient! First on my list: coconut cream pie, then coconut ice cream shake, and then coconut macaroons. Well, now I'm hungry! Thanks for the creative video.

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Love all those ideas!

[@sharonstettner8236]

So happy to see you both 'in person' I missed your interaction and sharing of knowledge!!

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Thanks for the support!

[@nelumbonucifera7537]

Ice cream was also my first thought. Anywhere I want coconut flavor without the extra water of a coconut milk or the fiber of a coconut flour - pastry, cookies and buttercream - seem like good applications to explore. Minor correction: coconut cream is higher fat/solids coconut milk; the syrup for pina coladas is "cream of coconut".

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Definitely need more exploration in the sweet applications

[@darchehrazi7179]

I add a couple TBS to my coffee. It’s delicious and doesn’t chill the coffee.

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Creamer sub, love it

[@Dani-hg4hd]

I wonder if you could make a coconut milk powder that has no coconut aroma similar to refined coconut oil. If that were a thing, I would definitely use it as a milk powder substitute for savoury seasoning blends like plant based cheese powder with some lactic acid and powdered dehydrated roasted squash yummm. Love your products!

[@Modernist_Pantry]

very interesting, we're not aware of deodorized coconut milk powder

[@stacyf528]

Panang would be my first endeavor with the coconut milk powder. I'd add it to macaroons in hopes of getting more flavor depth. I wonder about adding it to whipped cream for a tasty tropical twist. Sounds like a tasty product.

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Definitely some yummy ideas!

[@johnstuart3390]

How about using this with rice? Add a small amount for regular rice with dinner or more combined with fruit powder or even real fruit for a rice pudding for dessert. Can't wait to try it.

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Yeah, so many great uses for it!

[@VaPHpk]

You had me at coconut 😋

[@glowingember7553]

I love coconut! I think it would be fun to make the Coconut Milk Powder into little spheres and serve them in Pineapple juice. Or maybe bake up cupcakes and remove the middle, placing a larger sphere into the center and Whipping up a bit of the Coconut Milk Powder into a cream to decorate the top. I just received my kit from Modernist Pantry. I got the largest one so I can experiment with a bunch of your products. I'm so anxious to get started! Coconut Milk Powder would be a tremendous addition to the kit. I'd also like to try using Coconut Milk Powder to flavor white chocolate. Can that be done? Both for the shell as well as the ganache inside.

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Love all of these ideas!

[@PKSullivan]

My first thought is to do a coconutty bananas foster inspired dish, either with a coconut ice cream or frying the bananas in a coconut tempura batter.

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Love that! both!

[@gaiasophia9598]

Anything Coconut is Nectar of the Goddess!

[@Modernist_Pantry]

yeah yeah

[@Morkhs]

This is really interesting, my first thought even before you talked about the give away was this would be great to try in a white stout beer. I'm a little bit worried about the foam retention since it is 45% fat but this could work well especially with maltodextrin, how strong is the flavor at different dilutions?

[@Modernist_Pantry]

This is a mild coconut flavor so it will definitely that coconuttiness to your stout

[@MH-mi4xg]

Oh man, would it work with a whipping siphon and make coconut infused whipping cream? That would be exciting. Hope I win both this give away and last weeks so I can try! 😎

[@Modernist_Pantry]

oooh... there's a thought, would be fun to try

[@jasonjohnson2627]

I think it could do wonders if you could use it as sand on a tropical themed cake. Use it as an ingredient and a garnish. And take it one more step further and you can use coconut water with the gelatin to make your water. I really hope you guys know what I am talking about, just Google island jello cakes lol

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Great idea! 😁

[@vincentsabatino4480]

Coconut Batter for Plaintain slices, Calamari rings, Scallops, Whipped Cream for Pumpkin topping, Zucchini slices, mixed with whipped Cream cheese for a Fruit dip, Coconut flavored custard for steamed buns or cream puffs, Coconut Butter for french toast My mind is racing with ideas using coconut powder, seems like there is no limit and I'm sorry I didn't have this item on my order that I just placed this morning!

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Coconut butter for french toast... yes please!

[@GreatExplications]

I would design a deconstructed piña colada cocktail! My first idea would be to combine the Organic Coconut Milk Powder with your Foam Magic product to create a stable foam and then concoct a delicious pineapple base for the beverage. :)

[@Modernist_Pantry]

💯

[@CookingwithQ]

I would probably make coconut milk chocolate, since I can’t use anything with moisture in the conche

[@Modernist_Pantry]

yum!

[@facetnated]

I've been make sous vide steel-cut oats with Coconut milk and chia seeds. The issue of having open cans or not having it in my pantry when I decide to make it is sometimes and issue for me. I think the challenge would be to figure out the right amount. But looking at that batter, can you fry pineapple coated in it?

[@Modernist_Pantry]

The nice thing is you can start with a small amount and stir in additional until you get to the consistency you like. And we haven't tried fried pineapple but sounds delicious! If you find that the batter is having a hard time sticking can add a little Batter Bind to help it along

[@ephraimwilliams8855]

I’d make single serve mango panna cottas, with mini coconut meringues with a hint of cayenne/chili.

[@Modernist_Pantry]

oooh... love the addition of cayenne/chili

[@elizabethstewart387]

Great way to get coconut flavour in baked goods without the unpleasant texture of shredded or desiccated coconut!!!! and to make up small quantities of coconut "milk" and "cream".

[@Modernist_Pantry]

yup totally agree!

[@hamidabdoh397]

I would give a try to a lamb or goat goa curry in order to add to the coconut accent of the dish.

[@Modernist_Pantry]

That sounds great... a little sprinkling around the plate

[@hamidabdoh397]

@@Modernist_Pantry You guys rock.

[@kathleenchisholm4672]

that looks killer

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Thanks!

[@carolburnett8372]

I came here to find out maybe what the difference is in coconut powder and coconut flour.........it seems that coconut powder is the full coconut, and that coconut flour is made from coconuts where they have already removed the milk in the coconut.......am I right......any ideas......I want to make a recipe, but it calls for coconut powder....???? any ideas anyone ?????

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Coconut flour is made from the ground meat of the coconut after the milk is removed. Coconut milk powder is the dried form of the milk. They are not interchangeable. To figure out which is correct for your recipe look at what the purpose of the ingredient is in the recipe. If it's acting like flour then it is coconut flour.

[@carrolllee6875]

coconut glaze for Hot cross buns.

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Oh yeah!

[@dianew7058]

Is it vegan?

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Yes it is

[@edzmuda6870]

They need to use more hand gestures when they speak.

[@Modernist_Pantry]

*gesticulates wildly* will do!

[@dianew7058]

All the coconut powder I've ever found has dairy in it.

[@Modernist_Pantry]

Then it wouldn't be pure coconut powder if it contains dairy.
