General Info:
Coconut palm trees are grown throughout tropical regions for
decoration, as well as for its many culinary and non-culinary uses.
While almost every part of the coconut palm can be utilized
somehow, most of the interest focuses on the actual fruit, which is
technically a drupe and not a nut.
The meat in a young coconut is very soft and almost jelly-like. The
coconut meat turns very hard in a mature coconut. Most users of
coconut products have long been familiar with the many uses for
coconut milk and coconut cream. More recently coconut virgin oil
and coconut water have become more popular in developed
countries.
Coconuts are one of the nutrient richest foods on the planet. They
are a good source of iron, phosphorus, zinc and other minerals and
vitamins. Coconuts are also a good source of protein and fiber
while containing few naturally occurring sugars. According to
recent scientific consensus, the saturated fats contained in
coconuts are metabolized as soon as they are consumed and are not
converted into cholesterol or body fat.
The presence of electrolytes in the coconuts have made coconut
water a most refreshing and low calorie drink in tropical countries
since time immemorial. Coconut milk is made by heating grated
coconut pieces with water. Coconut milk can be converted into other
products like Coconut milk powder or Virgin Coconut oil. Due to the
high nutrient content of coconuts, coconut products are
increasingly finding their way into mainstream food and beverage
products. Coconut milk powder is also now being used in many
supplement formulas.
