Coconut
Don't call it a nut. Commonly mistaken for one, the coconut is far from it. Known for its hard, brown shell and creamy coconut milk, the coconut or "coco" is perfect for refreshments, exotic Asian dishes, or desserts. Fresh mature coconuts are heavy in liquid when shaken and have clean "eyes". To prepare, pierce the eyes, drain and chill. Tap the grooved shell with a hammer to crack it. Keep whole coconut at room temperature. Refrigerate or freeze chunks for a few days. Store at 65°F.
