Description
Coconut milk powder is a powdered product made by drying the liquid milk from coconuts, preserving the rich flavor and nutritional value of coconuts. Coconut milk powder is typically rich in medium-chain saturated fatty acids, especially lauric acid, which is a healthy fat with antimicrobial and antiviral properties. In addition, coconut milk powder contains vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber. The powdered form makes it easier to store and conveniently add to a variety of recipes, such as baked goods, desserts, beverages, ice cream, and as a thickener in cooking and a dairy substitute. It is also commonly used in vegetarian and dairy-free recipes, providing an alternative for those who are lactose intolerant or follow special diets. Due to its rich coconut aroma, coconut milk powder is especially popular in Southeast Asian cuisine.
