UHT coconut milk from Chaokoh in a 1,000 ml carton, labelled 100% coconut milk in Thai, for curries, soups and Thai desserts.
Chaokoh Coconut Milk UHT, Thailand comes in a green 1,000 ml carton printed in Thai, with the brand name ชาวเกาะ (Chaokoh) on an orange panel, the words กะทิ 100% (coconut milk 100%) and a large halved coconut on palm leaves. The net volume, ปริมาตรสุทธิ 1,000 มล., runs along the bottom. The photos show a cook stirring a wok of curry and bowls of green chicken curry, rice and mango with sticky rice. As general background, coconut milk is traditionally graded into thick coconut milk, or coconut cream, and thinner coconut milk, depending on the stage of extraction. Fry curry paste in a little of the milk until fragrant before adding the rest, use it as the base for coconut soups, or sweeten it with palm sugar and salt to pour over sticky rice and fruit.
