Thank you for this video. I am in the process of making some. I’m letting it sit overnight as we speak and hopefully get some coconut oil tomorrow. I’m excited! ❤
I am originally from SEA and this is what we had seen what our grandma did as a home made coconut oil. But she used a very low heat and it took hour. The solid part that came out was used in rice like mayonnaise. Thank you.
Thank you! My husband is at the store getting coconuts so I can make some for him. We use it daily and it's so expensive. I'm like I saw a video on making our own. He's all "I'm going to the store" 😂❤
Starting tomorrow I'm going to do this recipe for my coconut oil. Fresh coconut are really cheap in Malaysia. Thank you for uploading this video. Much love to you. 😍
I like your method for getting the milk out rather than the nut bags...I have sieves and mixing bowls...Wish me luck when coconut comes available again here in Alaska
Thank you so much for posting this. I have a skin condition and just overall extremely sensitive skin (as a kid belts gave me rashes bc they touched my skin, bad) & feel like most coconut oils are not pure. Now to make it myself, thank you ❤❤❤❤
love you racquel. you're so kind and such a pure soul. thanks a lot for sharing this amazing simple procedure of extracting virgin coconut oil at home. No need to waste money buying it at exorbitant prices. can you tell Me how much yield you had for 5 coconuts?
Thanks so much for this video! It's perfect. Question: I know what to do with coconut water, milk, and oil, but what do you do with the leftover curd after extracting the oil from it? Does it have a use for food, fuel, etc or must it go to waste?
You are welcome Sarah 😊 But are you asking about the leftovers curd that was cooked? Or the curd that was left after skimming the Cold Press Oil ? The curd that was left after cooking could be eaten, it very delicious 🤤
Thank you for the video but mine did not go all the way down....maybe water was in it when I just started 😢...I only got a small amount of oil...going to do it again
Thanks so much for your explanation I will try it one more question after filtering it are we going to leave it for a day or cook it immediately thanks
When you are done filtering the cream that was separated from the water after sitting overnight, yes cook right away. If you then allow that said cream to sit for another day, then it becomes cold press coconut oil. Here is a video on how to extract cold press coconut oil without cooking. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FOSigi1JzU0.html
The process upto the heating is good. However once you started to cook the coconut cream the product oil is NOT VIRGIN OIL. IT WENT THROUGH HEATING PROCESS! PURE VIRGIN OIL IS SCOOPED FROM THE FERMENTED SOLUTION AND strained and bottled. Aired out for couple days to eveporate water it may have then bottle. Pure virgin oil is colourless and bubble free. Thank for this.
Excellent video. Why do you use a plastic utensil to stir the hot coconut oil? That does not look safe. My mom and granny always tell me to use a wooden or stainless steel utensil.
Thank you so very much . Your videos are fantastic, so well explained and easy to follow ! I have one question , I live in the UK and it is not always easy to find fresh spinach . I know that kale may be substituted but can I use tinned callaloo with good results?
Hi Cecile, thank you 😊 Actually yes! I have tried tinned Callaloo and I was surprised of the results. It was good but because it’s already cooked, try not to overcook
Great video try to make as much food naturally as I can. Can coconut oil be made from coconuts that a young coconuts I see you used dry coconuts will it still work
The coconut has to be dry or semi dry in order to produce coconut oil, the young ones are yet to form the nut. When the coconut is young, the nut is more of a jelly rather than a nut.
