How to Shred Fresh Coconut!

In my book, Vice Cream, I tell how to make coconut milk. This section is for those who want some
instruction on how to select and open a mature coconut, how to remove the "meat",
how to shred it, and how to make delicious fresh raw coconut milk!

- Jeff Rogers

Shredding the coconut:

This method doesn't produce traditional shredded coconut, but is quick, simple, and efficient.
I use this method most often to prepare coconut for making coconut milk or cream.

coconut chunks

Start with chunks of fresh mature coconut.

I leave the thin "skin" on the coconut. If you are wanting a "white" coconut, then the brown layer should be removed from the coconut chunks.

 

Place the coconut in a sturdy food processor, such as a Cuisinart.

Start by pulsing the coconut. As the coconut breaks down to smaller pieces, turn the processor on to continuous.



You will likely need to stop the processor periodically to scrape the coconut from the sides of the processor bowl. Continue until the coconut has been shredded to a fine consistancy.

Here is the end result. From here you can use the coconut for a variety of purposes: cookies, candies, or making coconut milk or cream.
