Coconut milk - the recipe creation and use

It would Seem, why should we rely on foreign products, if their is enough: flour, eggs, and dairy products are a huge variety… So there!

Now chefs – both professionals and hobbyists – took up the development of another component of the exotic walnut-coconut milk. It turned out that it can be used to cook many great dishes, both sweet and meat.

The Market instantly reacted to the request of the hostesses and released coconut milk canned – a sort of a pasty product, consisting of coconut milk and a small chip.

All components mix, put on fire and bring to a boil. Boiling mass cook on very low heat for 15 minutes, filtered, cooled, and achieve thick in the fridge-about 30 minutes. Attention! How long this milk can not be stored – it is better to use in cakes.
