Coconut

We're use a lot of coconut at the moment because we are having fun cooking so many different kinds of curry and yes coconut is the must... here from the class we learns that there are two kind of coconut can in the supermarket.

Coconut Milk : Coconut milk can be either obtained by grating the coconut flesh, soaking it in boiling water and then squeezing out the liquid using fine sieve, or by using can of coconut milk from Asian food store. This coconut milk we use for the curry.
Coconut Cream : Coconut cream is the thick top layer which forms after making coconut milk. We put coconut cream on top of some curry or for dessert. Also available in the Asian Store.

In Japan we can find it in Hanamasa, National Azabu Supermarket, Nissin or Pororoca Supermarket..
