How to Choose a Young Coconut

Pin It Now!


The other day I went to the Asian food store to pick up a couple of cases of young coconuts, and I was so disappointed. 18 coconuts and only 8 of them were good. So sad. I have never had that happen before. Sure, I will always have a couple of coconuts per case that are bad, but never, in  8 years of cracking coconuts, have I ever experienced this.

Well, I guess I will be trying to get back to the store to see what we can do about that, but in the mean time I thought I would make a short little video that might help someone else avoid this problem. In the future, I will probably choose my coconuts individually instead of just taking a random case. It's probably worth sacrificing the 10% off.

Raw Pear Crisp

Pin It Now!
Treat time! I had some pears in the fridge that needed to be used up, so I sliced them, tossed them with a little coconut sugar (not raw, but less refined) and sea salt, then topped with a crumb topping made of chopped pecans, coconut sugar, coconut oil, and coconut flakes. Yummy!
