How To Open A Young Thai Coconut

July 14th, 2009 · 2 Comments

Young Thai Coconuts are a delicious and nutritious addition to your diet.

young-thai-coconuts-2

Young coconuts are natures best electrolyte drink.
In fact, it has been said that the juice from a young thai coconut is the closest thing to human blood plasma in the plant kingdom.

The juice has been used in I.V.’s to aid in recovery from severe dehydration… it’s that good!

Here’s the kicker: The juice and the flesh from a young thai coconut is delicious. It can be eaten/drank straight from the coconut or you can use it in a variety of recipes from smoothies to salads to cookies… :-)

How Do You Open A Young Thai Coconut?

I’m glad you asked!
The hardest thing about eating a young thai coconut is getting it open.
This has always been a challenge for me.

I even took a class on how to open them and still had trouble…
… Until I found the following video!

In this video, Chef Steffy Sue of Rawk in the Kitchen demonstrates an easy “no hassle” way to open young thai coconuts.

Watch the video :-)

Doesn’t that look easy?
I tried this myself and opened my young thai coconut on the first try.
Very cool! :-)

Have you ever tried to open a young thai coconut?
