Homemade Coconut Cream  

Ingredients


	1 	medium-size coconut
		Liquid from coconut plus enough milk or light cream
		to total 1 quart

Instructions:
Open coconut, reserving liquid; grate meat moderately find and place in a 
large, heavy saucepan with liquid mixture. Heat slowly, stirring constantly, 
just until mixture boils. Remove from heat, cover, and cool to room 
temperature. Press through a double thickness of cheesecloth or a fine sieve, 
forcing out as much liquid as possible. Discard coconut pulp. Use milk in 
making curries, confections, desserts, and beverages. Store in refrigerator. 
Yield: 1 quart 

To make with Canned or Flaked Coconut:
Prepare as directed, substituting 3 (4-ounce) cans flaked or shredded coconut 
for the fresh and using 1 quart milk or light cream. (Note: If your Scottish 
nature rebels at discarding the coconut, spread out in a large shallow baking 
pan, drizzle lightly with melted butter, and toast, stirring often, 3/4 to 1 
hour until crisp and golden. Flavor will be bland, but coconut can be used to 
garnish candies and fruit desserts or as a condiment for curry.)
