Organic Coconut Milk – Light – 9% Fat
What is Light Organic Coconut Milk?
The unique geographical and geological placement of Sri Lanka attributes incomparably fresh and succulent tastes to all of its fruitage. It is for that reason Ranre Foods sources its fresh, matured coconuts only locally from organic plantations which make them even more beneficial. They and the modern state-of-the-art machinery are the ones that make Ranre Foods’ Light Organic Coconut Milk so distinctive. Initially, the coconut meat is cleaned and scraped and then mixed with RO (Reverse Osmosis) water to produce authentic coconut milk. The production is carried out under strict quality control, thus the resulting Light Organic Coconut Milk has a natural milky coconut taste and aroma, and has a genuine pure white appearance.
The modern busy lifestyles and loads of unhealthy fast food that complement them have long demanded a more health-oriented makeover to daily schedules. Ranre Foods has taken up this challenge by bringing you the low-fat Light Organic Coconut Milk to add much-needed fibre and nutrition to daily meals. This Light Organic Coconut Milk ideally replaces low-fat dairy in everyday recipes or perfectly fits where thin coconut milk is required. It can be used for:
- baking to make low-fat dough;
- desserts;
- thin light sauces;
- soups to add light milky flavour;
- a base for oatmeal or any other cooked cereals;
- various vegetables, meats and fish curries;
- cocktails and other beverages;
- light milkshakes;
- light healthy smoothies;
- low-fat protein shakes;
- gluten-free and dairy-free recipes;
- porridges;
- cooked pasta or spaghetti to make the dish saucier;
- direct drinking instead of low-fat dairy milk.
It is especially useful if you are a vegan, vegetarian or have lactose intolerance. It is an important additional element, helping you to diversify your meals to keep them more beneficial for your well-being. It is also a safer way to enjoy many otherwise rich Asian dishes and delicacies if you are a gourmet. Either way, Light Organic Coconut Milk is a welcoming transformation in your life, bringing variety, flavour and aroma along with enhancement of your well-being.
Is there any nutritional value in the Light Organic Coconut Milk?
Light Organic Coconut Milk contains fat, carbohydrates, protein, natural sugars, potassium, sodium, calcium, iron, and some vitamins. The majority of the fat is made out of lauric, caprylic, and capric acids. They are MCTs (medium-chain-triglycerides), which are more easily broken down in the liver to give quick energy boosts. For the same reason, they are less prone to be stored as fat in the body. Thus, you would get 89 calories from each serving size of 100 grams. And the greatest news is, there is no cholesterol, trans fats or added sugars for you to worry about.

Enjoying Light Organic Coconut Milk to its fullest.
Ranre Foods is dedicated to bringing you the cleanest and purest products possible. Therefore, no additional or dangerous preservatives are used to prolong the shelf life of the Light 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 Light 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. This 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 Light 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 Light 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.
