Freezing young coconut meat

soulfulwind

A lot of the recipes I enjoy require young coconut meat, where I live these coconuts are hard to come by. I started buying in bulk, but I was wondering if you can freeze the meat to use later, or if this would destroy the texture/taste?

Freezing slighty changes the texture of the meat, but does not destroy it by any means. Plus it’s so much easier to just thaw when you need it, rather than the whole process of opening coconuts and getting the meat.

Thanks for the advice. That would be nice if my grocery store would carry it frozen.

Thank you for this thread!! Getting answers can be hard, Google is for SAD told me to put sugar on it first. How long will can it be frozen?
