Desiccated Coconut

Desiccated Coconut is a very popular ingredient in kitchens all over the world. It is a distinctive and cornerstone flavour in a huge number of dishes both savoury and sweet. It has high natural fats and low sugar with some protein, making it useful on some specific diets. By taking the moisture out of the coconut, flavours become more intense and the shelf life extends much further.

Desiccated Coconut is a staple of bakery goods ranging from cupcakes and muffins to macarons and much more. Even when coconut isn’t the main flavour, you can use it in a supporting role to enhance other ingredients. You can also use it to make dishes such as coconut fried rice, beef rendang or in your own flapjacks. This is an ingredient that you can endlessly experiment with!

As with any ingredient, always add a little at a time to get the flavour you want. It’s easy to add more but can be difficult or impossible to remove.
