I live in Costa Rica and we have 2 coconut trees loaded with fruit. I love fresh green coconut water and I’m so excited now to try making my own coconut milk. Thanks for the recipe!

[@rayon1696]

Amazing to watch...Love the way he speaks and explains.

[@andyatari]

Awesome, I've been using your Almond milk recipe video for my morning espresso and pour-overs for a few months now. It's by far the best home made almond milk recipe and it's much much better than all the store bought ones I've tried.

[@YEUNGMANCOOKING]

That is wonderful to hear and makes me smile to know how much you are enjoying. You’ll have to let me know if you give this a go 👨🏻‍🍳🙌🏻

[@shyrleimasson6178]

To make it easier to get the coconut out of the shell I freeze the coconut before. You just have to open one of the holes and get the water out. Freeze the coconut for 2 days and crack it open. The nut will shrink and loose from the shell.

[@YEUNGMANCOOKING]

Very interesting 🙌🏻

Does freezing affect the flavor or texture of the meat?

Great video. Cabin you share what brand of macha did you have use in this video?

[@carmelitataylor2468]

I really enjoyed watching you make coconut milk and adding the cashew milk. Towards the end of your video, I just about lost it when you made the matcha latte! It was a treat to watch and the icing on the cake for me. I love matcha tea and can't wait to try your version. Thank you, Will!

Hi Wil! I missed seeing you on Sunday! Ok, coconut milk is wonderful! I use it all the time in my curry recipes and rice dishes. It adds richness and sweetness to all my food. Thank you again...and again.❤🙏 Tip: The kernel comes out easier if you warm the outside of the shells a bit...over your flame.

[@YEUNGMANCOOKING]

Great tip! And it really is a delight to enjoy and cook with 🥥🌴👌🏻

Oh yum! I’m definitely going to make that for my hubby. He will absolutely love it! Thank you for the share ♥️

Great video, thank you...what is the purpose of salt in the coconut and when you were selling the milk, what extended their shelf life

[@eloisaguevarra8672]

Wow pretty amazing,getting new idea from you Mr chef. We usually use coconut milk in can now I could probably buy a fresh coconut and try the same procedure. Thanks for sharing. More power and God bless always.

[@YEUNGMANCOOKING]

It really is worth the process 🙌🏻 Enjoy!

[@eloisaguevarra8672]

@@YEUNGMANCOOKING thanks a lot.

[@CoFFee123..]

I live in Malaysia and we have lots of coconut trees. However, only until recently, I have only used the coconut milk ( we called it “santan “ in Malaysia) to cook curry dishes. Nowadays we have many coconut drink stalls that use young coconut meat to make coconut shakes with added fruits like avocado, mango, etc . Coconut shakes is now my favourite drink. So yummy.

[@YEUNGMANCOOKING]

Sounds delicious 🙌🏻

[@peterkabiru5144]

[@Purplelightningtiger]

I watched your video and your a amazing chef. I was just curious if I have a coconut that is brown what is the best way to remove the shell from the husk of the coconut?, and also when pouring coconut water out of it and when brown with husk fibers or hairs how can I remove the husk fibers and dirt so the coconut water is clear?. Also how do I know when coconut water is bad when pouring it into a cup?. Sorry about all these questions it’s first time harvesting a coconut 😅.

[@madelenegeswaldo652]

I grew up with palm trees in my backyard- I really appreciate how often you use coconut in your recipes and I really appreciate this one in particular. I always buy canned coconut milk but I am going to try this over the weekend. Gracias!

[@rebeccacharles5758]

Thank you for this. You make it look so easy, probably because you are professional. I tried cracking open a coconut once 3 years ago and it was a method I used by putting the coconut in an oven then cracking it where the eyes are, that took ages and getting the coconut meat out took me 3 hours. I never bought coconut again.

[@ajwatson9974]

Looks delicious in the Caribbean we use coconut milk to make our rice and peas.. Thanks for the tips with the nuts etc..☺

What a peaceful vlog. I love coconut milk. Where can I find the milk container?

These ones here were purchased for the sale of the milks back when we ran the nut milk business. However, I’ve seen similar ones at bulk food stores or even online 👌🏻

[@briannhinton]

What do you think would be a good portion with concentrated cold brew instead of matcha?

[@anjaroganpirc501]

Thanks for your great input, very valuable video! I’ve just been wondering, how do you know then if the coconut is fresh, I’m not sure I caught you say it specifically. I’m asking because I’ve done it 3 times now and the first one lasted for 3 days but the other two only for a day and then it got weirdly lumpy 🫣😅 what am I missing? Thanks! 🙏

[@karenbenavente1124]

I'd love to have a matcha latte right now! It looks so delicious 😋

[@YEUNGMANCOOKING]

😎🍵

[@leilaandino720]

Amazing recipe, as always! I just have a question, could we use the coconut water for the milk recipe? Coconut water is such a good hydration source for the body, that I would like to use it and not waste it. Although it could always be used separately, or course.

[@YEUNGMANCOOKING]

It’s possible - however, taste test the water first. Sometimes the flavour isn’t as pleasant as young coconut

[@thecraftress]

Amazing video, glad I found your channel. May I ask where you source your matcha from? I'd love to get some, thanks!

[@MGDRIVING]

What are your thoughts on putting the cracked coconut into a 400 degree oven for 12-13 minutes then the coconut releases completely from the shell with just a little nudging from a butter knife? Do you think this cooks the coconut? I saw this technique and tried it. It works perfectly but I did see some steam coming off the coconut.

[@ItsTreen]

Friend this was the most satisfying video😌 Everything looked smooth and delicious 🥥🧴

[@YEUNGMANCOOKING]

[@TeGoSxx89]

Thank you so much for this videos, this one was very relaxing and also inspiring. I have one question, so I am from Costa Rica and I would like to start my coconut milk business.

Really has a good way of preparing coconut milk fr the scratch. Great chef

[@kh-uw6um]

Thank you as usual for a superb video. Question: when making cashew milk it does not have to be strained?

[@roryjineffect]

Depends on how long you blend it and if you presoak them. A quick strain is never bad, though.

[@YEUNGMANCOOKING]

We find it not necessary with this method 🙌🏻

[@LiloUkulele]

The coconuts available here, Baja, Mexico, have the full green husk....any prep hints?

[@xunsun7495]

If you observe the coconut, there are three holes at one end, like three eyes, one of the eyes is much softer than others, you can find out by pressing with thumb. It can be easily drilled. Then you take a straw to enjoy clean coconut water first before breaking it❤

[@thuyencarnacion7345]

Thank you, I will try making this. Could you provide a link to the matcha green tea? There are so many and I don’t know which brand to get.

[@samanthab5006]

I love using coconut milk but am sensitive to too much saturated fat as it can raise my cholesterol even on a plant based diet. Therefore it is a treat occasionally enjoyed, usually at our favorite Thai restaurant or when I get a craving for vegan rice pudding. There are a few popsicle recipes I've been looking to try this summer and it may be fun to try making my own for that.
