I prefer softer coconut September 29, 2008 Mustafa Boudjerada (USA) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is really really hard! I use it for baking and for topping treats like cakes, yogurt etc. This doesn't work well at all!
Delicious just as it is. January 24, 2008 S. Young (OH United States) I debated about ordering unsweetened coconut but after tasting it I couldn't see why you would need it any other way. It has a great flavor all it's own and with the 4-pack I will have lots of fun making macaroons and trying it in different recipes. Can't wait.
Makes great coating for chicken or fish when mixed with breadcrumbs! April 12, 2007 DAVERAT (USA) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I have been using Bob's red mill unsweetened coconut for about 2 years now and it's great. My favorite use for it is as part oif a coating for chicken or fish. You just toast the coconut in a nonstick pan until nice and deeply browned and then mix it half and half with Panko crumbs or regular breadcrumbs. Dredge your chicken pieces in flour, dip in egg and then coat with the coconut & breadcrumbs. I bake mine in the oven but you can also deep fry. This coating is also excellent for shrimp or scallops. Since it's unsweetened, you can use it in carribbean stews or any other savory dish. For baked goods it's especially helpful in controlling the amount of sugar in the final product. Coconut doesn't really need to be sweetened when it's added to other sweet ingredients. For example, those 7 layer dream bars with chcolocate and butterscotch chips as well as sweetened condensed milk don't really need sweetened coconut now do they? I also add this coconut to banana nut breads, chocolate brownies and icings for cakes. If you are making a regular white cake with coconut icing, you can punch up the coconut quotient by trhwoing in a half cup or so into the mix and then some more into the custard filling and get triple coconut cake! Yum. It's not hard to toast this coconut but be aware that once it starts browning, it browns VERY fast and will continue browning even after you remove it from the heat. Once you have bought this and used it, you'll find a hundred other uses for it. try the coconut encrusted chicken for something different!
Excellent January 20, 2007 Rebeca Rodriguez (Brooklyn, NY) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
The coconut is is dry but when used with wet ingredients it softens. It has the perfect coconut flavor and I really like the fact that it is unsweetened. That way I can control the amount of sugar in the recipe. Thanks to Bob my coconut macaroons were a hit!
Great coconut January 7, 2007 Kelly Hayes (Wiggins, Mississippi United States) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This coconut tastes great. I don't like the coconut from the grocery store because it is too sweet. Bob's Red Mill coconut is not too sweet. It isn't sticky either when using it.
