COCONUT BUTTER

Coconut butter, also known as coconut mana, is a versatile and richly flavored product derived from the flesh of mature coconuts. The process of making coconut butter involves blending coconut meat into a smooth, creamy consistency, and it retains all the nutrients found in raw coconut, including healthy saturated fats, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Its mildly sweet and tropical flavor makes it a popular ingredient in various culinary applications.Home cooks and consumers often use coconut butter as a healthier alternative to dairy butter or other spreads. It can be enjoyed on toast, stirred into oatmeal, blended into smoothies, or added to a variety of sweet and savory dishes for extra depth of flavor. Additionally, it's a popular ingredient in vegan and paleo diets, as it can be used to create delicious dairy-free desserts and baked goods.

This is completely normal as coconut butter solidifies at room temperature and melts when heated.Here are some tips to get the most out of your coconut butter:1. To incorporate coconut butter into recipes smoothly, it helps to slightly warm it until it's just softened, but not fully melted. 2. If your coconut butter has separated, gently warm it in a hot water bath and stir until smooth before using.3. Coconut butter can also be substituted for other fats in baking. For example, if a recipe calls for butter or vegetable oil, you can use an equal amount of coconut butter for a healthier alternative.4.

Expiration & Storage Tips

When does coconut butter expire?

Unopened, coconut butter can last up to 2 years stored at room temperature. Once opened, it's best consumed within 3-6 months. However, a cooler environment can slightly extend this timeframe. If you choose to freeze coconut butter, it can last even longer, for up to 3 years without losing quality.

How do you tell if coconut butter is bad?

Check for any signs of mold, which could appear as fuzzy, greenish-blue spots on the product. Unpleasant smells, like rancidity or mildew, and a noticeable change in flavor are also indicators that the coconut butter has spoiled. Coconut butter also tends to separate when it's going bad, so if you see a clear liquid (oil) and solid separate, it may be time to toss it out.

Tips for storing coconut butter to extend shelf life

• Keep the jar well-sealed when not in use, as air exposure can hasten the spoiling process.• While coconut butter does not need to be refrigerated, storing it in a cool, dry, and dark place (like a pantry or cupboard) can help extend its shelf life.• If you choose to refrigerate your coconut butter, it will solidify. You can soften it before use by placing the desired amount in a microwave-safe bowl and heating it for a few seconds.• For long-term storage, you can freeze coconut butter in a sealed, airtight container. When you're ready to use it, allow it to thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then stir well before using.
