Grilled Coconut Stock

Grilled Coconut Stock: A cooking base made by simmering suitable cooked ingredients or clean food-grade trimmings in water, then straining. It is a base for another dish, not necessarily a finished soup.

Context

Use food-grade coconut flesh or unsweetened coconut milk, as the preparation requires. Toasted flesh is fibrous and its oil can separate; finely blend or strain when smoothness matters.

Example

A menu could use this preparation as the cooking liquid for rice. This is an illustrative use, not a standardized recipe.

How THT uses it

At The Hidden Table, this preparation would be adjusted to the guests, the course and the ingredient available, so it contributes a clear purpose and helps make the experience distinctly yours.
