Organic Coconut Milk – Gentle – 12% Fat

What is Gentle Organic Coconut Milk?

Only fresh, matured coconuts sourced from the organic coconut plantations in Sri Lanka are used to produce Gentle Organic Coconut Milk. Hence, the end product has the distinctive freshness and the naturally richer taste common to all Sri Lankan fruitages. The process begins with the cleaning of the coconut meat followed by scraping and mixing it with RO (Reverse Osmosis) water to produce authentic coconut milk. The production is carried out under strict quality control, thus the resulting Gentle Organic Coconut Milk has a natural milky coconut taste and aroma, and has a genuine pure white appearance.

Enjoying Gentle Organic Coconut Milk to its fullest.

Ranre Foods is dedicated to bringing you the cleanest and purest products possible. Therefore, no additional or harmful preservatives are used to prolong the shelf life of Gentle Organic Coconut Milk. We use sterilisation and maintain PH high to keep low acidity in the product. Thus, making sure no harm will come to you when consuming our products.

But all-natural products inherently have a shorter shelf life. Hence, we recommend using the whole amount of Gentle Organic Coconut Milk as soon as possible after opening it. However, if any storing is required, or you wish to use the remainder the next time, consider transferring the contents into a glass jar. Do not forget to cover it tightly and refrigerate it. Best if you can use it within the next two days to keep all the nutrients and benefits.

If you need to store it for longer periods, we recommend dividing the remainder into the required portion sizes and freezing it. It will alter the texture and the taste a little, because of the separation of the solids and the liquids when thawing. So, do not forget to shake or stir it well, or even better, blend it for about 30 seconds after de-freezing and before using it to get closest to the original homogeneous consistency.

Following these steps, you may extend the use of your Gentle Organic Coconut Milk for up to a month, but only with one time freezing and de-frosting of the portion regardless of its size.

To de-frost, transfer the required amount into the fridge overnight. The process may take something between 8 and 14 hours. This will allow the Gentle Organic Coconut Milk to de-freeze slowly, reducing the alterations to the product. Make certain not to keep this de-frosted coconut milk for more than two days in the fridge afterwards.
