To use YOLO Brand Unsweetened Coconut Milk, simply shake the carton well before opening. For cooking, it can be added directly to simmering dishes like curries, stews, and soups to impart creaminess and a subtle coconut flavor. In baking, it can substitute for dairy milk in cakes, muffins, and breads, contributing moisture and richness. It also blends beautifully into smoothies and can be frothed for coffee drinks. For a quick dessert, it can be chilled and whipped to create a dairy-free topping.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike some other plant-based milks, this coconut milk has a naturally higher fat content, contributing to a thicker consistency and richer mouthfeel. Its distinct coconut flavor is more pronounced than almond or soy milk, making it ideal for dishes where that taste is desired. The unsweetened variety ensures no added sugars interfere with the intended flavor of your recipe.

How to keep the rest
After opening, transfer any unused YOLO Brand Unsweetened Coconut Milk to a sealed container and refrigerate. It should be consumed within 5-7 days of opening. Proper refrigeration is key to maintaining its freshness and preventing spoilage. Do not freeze the product in its original carton.
