Guest guest Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I was reading how many of you make coconut oil, so I bought a ton of flaked unsweetened coconut. I want to try it but I haven't a clue what you do with it after you make it. Can you give me some ideas? Do you cook with it? O make salad dressing or just use it in desserts? terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Hmmm, guess I'm confused. If I whir up flaked coconut what do I get? Butter or both butter and oil?

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Coconut Oil has a shelf-life of up to 2 years:http://www.google.com/search?client=safari & rls=en & q=coconut+oil+shelf+life & ie=UTF-8 & oe=UTF-8Coconut Butter will separate just like peanut butter. The oil in the coconut butter has the long shelf life, the coconut meat, however - I don't know about its shelf life.I keep coconut oil and butter in the fridge. The oil I have in gallon containers and melt what will fit into a salad oil container to keep melted on the counter.The coconut butter I make into coconut bits and keep in the fridge because I like the texture better solid.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Blend it up and you get coconut butter - coconut butter can be best compared to peanut butter, When first made, they have similar textures. When left out on the counter, the oil separates, and rises to the top.
