1. Hi! Today we’re going to teach you how to prepare milk that is highly nutritious, extremely tasty and 100% pure
2. Which coconut should you use? Not the dry coconut or green coconut
Remember, your knife must be sharp
Then when you try to take it out with a knife, it’ll come out very easily
When you take out the coconut from the shell, you’ll find a thin brown covering on it. You don’t need to peel this off
You need to simply hold the coconut steady with one hand and rotate the handle with the other hand.
To make coconut milk, you need one cup coconut kernel and two cups of water. Always remember this ratio
Add them both to the mixer and blend them for approximately one minute
3. The water you add to it must be at room temperature
Our coconut milk is ready!
You can do a lot of interesting things with the leftover pulp in the cloth, which we will show you further in this video
Just shake it once and it will be ready for use again
Now let’s take a look at 3 recipes that you can make with coconut milk in just 5 minutes
The first is banana date shake
Add one cup of coconut milk to your blender, 2 ripe bananas, 3 dates, 2 ice-cubes and a pinch of cinnamon powder
1/4 cup mint leaves, ½ teaspoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon rock salt, and 1 teaspoon roasted cumin powderJust blend it and serve it chilled
4. This chhaas is so tasty that whoever tries it once won’t be able to stop at one glass
The third recipe is pumpkin soup
Then you can add your favourite herbs to it. Our favourites are thyme and rosemary
Try replacing your dinner with this soup
Everyone including children and elderly will not only be stunned by its colour, but also its taste.
You can find all these recipes in our Satvic Food Book, which you can order from our website.
5. You can also find the link in the description box below.
Come let’s discuss the 5 common mistakes that we make while preparing coconut milk
The first mistake – we think that coconut milk is very expensive
So come, let’s compare the prices. In India, one coconut costs approximately Rs. 40
You can get 2 cups of coconut kernel from one coconut
When you blend this with 4 cups of water, you easily get 1 litre of milk from one coconut
So 1 litre of coconut milk costs only Rs. 40
And A2 milk is even more expensive. A2 milk costs around Rs. 70-100/litre
Second mistake – we think that coconut milk is not as nutritious as cow milk
6. Have you ever wondered why every birth, every death, every wedding,
every inauguration, every special occasion includes coconuts?
Because our ancestors knew how beneficial and nutritious it is
They knew that if they recommended it to people for health reasons, then maybe people won’t consume it
But by including it in every ritual, coconuts would automatically reach every household one way or another
7. Coconut milk is as good as mother’s milk
And this is being proved by many research studies today
Another important thing – coconut shells are so strong that no pesticides or chemicals can be injected into them
The packaged milk that we get is often adulterated with shampoos, detergents,
Third mistake – we think that coconut milk has cholestero
8. Coconut is only converted into cholesterol when we cook it
So it is very important that we never cook coconut milk on a flame
If you want to add it to a soup or curry, then always switch off the gas first and then add it
Fourth mistake – buying packaged coconut milk from the store
Try this yourself. Keep homemade coconut in the fridge
Forget 3 days, or 3 months, the packaged milk still won’t spoil even in 3 years
t of chemicalA los and preservatives,
which may increase the shelf life of the packet, but decrease the shelf life of your own body
9.Let’s see what we can do with this leftover pulp
You can use it as a scrub while bathing. Your skin will start glowing
You can mix dates, jaggery, dry fruits and a little bit of cardamom powder to prepare delicious ladoos
You can also use it as manure for your plants. It will be extremely beneficial for their growth
Now you may still have some questions regarding coconut milk
10. This depends on your lifestyle
Children, athletes, and those who do intense physical labour, can drink 1-2 glasses every day
You can mix a little bit of jaggery, dates, or dry fruits to make it even tastier
then there’s no need to consume coconut milk separately
You can add it to your soups, salad dressings, curries, and smoothies in smaller quantities
You don’t need to drink it separately
Second question – how can I make tea or coffee using coconut milk?
In the Satvic philosophy, we do not recommend having tea or coffee
But don’t worry! You can prepare a milk-free, tea leaf-free and coffee powder-free, delicious tea and coffee
Yes! Do try the herbal tea and no-coffee cold coffee recipes in our Satvic Food book
Third question – Coconut isn’t available where I live. Is there any alternative that I can use?
11. No problem. Instead of coconut milk, you can prepare almond milk
Simply soak 1 cup almonds and take 2 cups of water
Blend them together and as shown earlier, strain it with a muslin cloth. Your almond milk is ready!
Remember, almond milk is a little more difficult to digest than coconut milk,
but it is still a lot easier to digest than cow milk
So we hope that you can switch from animal milk to coconut milk
This divine fruit offers so much to us
coconut water and coconut milk to drink, coconut cream and kernel to eat, oil and scrub to apply
there’s no limit to this invaluable creation of Mother Nature
We offer our deepest gratitude to it from the bottom of our heart, and hope that it brings purity and health to your life
