How people cook with it

- Curries and stews

To use Tito Al's Choice Coconut Milk, simply open the can. If separation has occurred, which is natural, stir it well with a spoon or whisk until it is smooth and uniform. You can then add it directly to your cooking. It is excellent for simmering in curries, blending into creamy soups, or incorporating into dessert batters. For a lighter consistency, you can thin it with a bit of water. It also works wonderfully as a dairy-free base for beverages.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike coconut cream, which is thicker and has a higher fat content, this coconut milk offers a lighter, more fluid consistency. This makes it ideal for dishes where a less dense richness is desired, allowing other flavors to shine through while still providing a subtle coconut note.

Home cooks and professional chefs alike use this coconut milk to add a distinct flavor and creamy texture to their dishes.
How to keep the rest
After opening, transfer any unused coconut milk to a clean, airtight container. Refrigerate it promptly. It should be used within a few days to maintain its freshness and quality. Do not freeze the liquid in the original can.
