I just came across a great post on making coconut milk.

For those of you further south in the state… this article from Pilgrim’s Cottage will give you all you need to start making your own homemade coconut milk.

Jean shows us how to make coconut milk!

I guess I never thought much about the difference between coconut milk and coconut water. I used to chop open the nuts and drink the water all the time as a kid, though my favorite part was the nut itself. Fresh coconut is wonderful.

It reminds me of being a kid and visiting my Grandmom and Grandpop’s house. Along the canal behind their place there was a row of Malaysian coconut trees.

I’ve planted palms, climbed them, and even painted them.
