Probably, there is no person who has not tried coconut? Coconut is the fruit of the coconut tree. The fruit is quite large in size, spherical in shape, the white pulp is covered with a thin brown skin and a hard shell with a nap.
The contents of the coconut can be consumed fresh, dry and grated. Due to its popularity in Asian cuisine, coconut pulp is also used in European cuisine. To determine if a coconut is good, you need to find out if it contains milk, so when buying this fruit, shake it near your ear.
There are three spots on the coconut, and if pressed when pressed, then the coconut is spoiled. A ripe coconut can be distinguished by how easily the flesh separates from the shell. Ripe pulp is easily separated from the shell layer.
The question often arises: How to open a coconut? Most hobbyists try to simply smash the coconut on the floor or table, without considering the fact that juice will flow out of it. Therefore, first you need to extract the juice and then chop the coconut. What do I need to do? The coconut has three eyes, which are located on the thinnest part of the shell. Take a sharp object and poke two holes with it, then use a straw and drink coconut juice. Now proceed to cracking the coconut. The coconut fruit, like everything that surrounds us, has a weak point, this is one third of the distance from the eyes. Put the coconut on a flat surface and hit the target point with the blunt side of the knife. The procedure should be done 3-4 times, after which a crack will form. Use a knife to cut the coconut apart and enjoy the tasty and juicy pulp. Now you know that it really isn't that difficult to open a coconut!
