Hello fellow classmates, I have been on a little vacation and haven't played Alphabe-Thursdays in awhile. Mrs. Matlock I hope I can return without getting my grade docked too much. If you are new here and don't know about the class go here and check it out, you will learn lots of amazing things!
I just discovered the most amazing trick. (I found it here at Karl MacFee's site who got it from Nutty Kitchen)
Do you have milk allergies?
Do you just like the taste of coconut?
All you do is put a jar of full fat coconut milk in the fridge - I use Thai Kitchen Organic.
saving the milk in the can to drink or add to a smoothie.
Add a little vanilla and maybe some cinnamon, or honey and whip, whip it good!
And tada, you have wonderful delicious milk free whipping cream to put in your coffee or on your strawberries or our favorite - on top of the raspberry and ganache topped cake.
What do you put whipping cream on? In?
This sounds wonderful. It would be great in this summer heat.

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful link to Alphabe-Thursday's Letter "W".
ReplyDeleteI am really excited about this because I really limit my dairy.
I've tried it before but I never did the chilling thing and so it never whipped up!
You are awesome!
Wouldn't this be great on a peach cobbler?
Thanks for a wildly delicious link!
A+
My husband and I have often done this, then we moved to Australia and most of the coconut milk, even coconut cream didn't have enough oil to solidify...needless to say we were very disappointed. I was a main staple of ours! We finally did find one small store that carried a different brand that became "whipped creamy". Such differences in quality!
ReplyDeletereally? oh my goodness this seems so easy...and i am definitely going to try it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful treat! I love whipped cream anyway so I will definetly try this! Thank you and what a great summer post too! Hugs Anne
ReplyDeleteHappy W day! I can eat dairy, but think that coconut whipped cream sounds delish!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if I'd like coconut milk? I have no idea and I'm a little hesitant to try. I do like real whipped cream, but limit my consumption.
ReplyDeleteInteresting! I love learning something new everyday!
ReplyDeleteSounds wonderful!!! I am going to try this out!!

Oh wow, I just made chocolate coconut pudding the other night and was lamenting to my husband how much I miss whipping cream. I am going to try this next time!
ReplyDeleteI found your blog through the Fight Back Fridays blog carnival. =)
Great idea. I use coconut milk all the time but have never thought of using it asa whipped topping. Yum! I invite you to link up at my Vegetarian Foodie Fridays too if you like. Hope to see you there!
ReplyDeleteYummy idea!!
ReplyDeleteTHANKS. I can't have dairy or soy. This is perfect for me. I can't wait to try this.
ReplyDeleteI have always been afraid to use coconut milk because I am not sure I like the flavor that much. But, I will have to try and see! Great idea.
ReplyDeleteWow, fabulous idea! Thanks also for stopping by my blog. I am enjoying your's.
ReplyDeleteYumm! I love coconut milk and use it for "shake-type" drinks with crushed ice, fruit, and put it all in a blender. Thank you for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteBlessings & Aloha!

Ah! I am the last in class this week...so tardy!
oh yeah...that is some delicious stuff! And a very summery twist even those who do "do" dairy! Thanks for the awesome tip!
ReplyDeleteOh yum! I never thought of doing that with our coconut milk. Great tip!
ReplyDeleteUnbelievable! After reading a lot of w posts, I've just been to the shop for watermelon - yes really, I have. I can't go again for coconut milk!
ReplyDeleteNot sure where I can get tinned coconut milk - all that cholesterol - maybe it's a good thing
ReplyDeleteMmmmmm! Sounds terrific!
ReplyDeleteBTW, thanks for your sweet comment!
It always saddens me when a comment comes "noreply-comment@blogger.com, " and I can't email you a "hello!" thanks to everyone who stopped and commented. Jaydubblah - coconut milk is full of good fats - a wonderful healthy treat!
ReplyDeleteoh my...can I come over for dinner, please? Your recipes look so wonderfully good!
ReplyDeleteI am so going to try that! Great to know!
ReplyDeleteWoWzers...Waaaaay...yum!
ReplyDeleteI shall pass this on to the cook in my family, I bet this will be a 4th of July treat :)
Yum! Great idea. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI put cream on and in every possible thing. You should see all of the different kinds of cream we bought this week. My fiance laughed out loud. :)
Thanks for visiting me. I'll be back to see you again soon!
Ah! I'm so glad I decided to browse your recipes tonight. I've been looking for a non-dairy whipped topping and, voila!, here's your recipe. :D
ReplyDeleteLisa - it really is a wonderful substitute for whipping cream! Thanks for "looking around!".
ReplyDeleteI never would have thought that you can actually whip coconut cream! I'm definitely going to have to try this next time a recipe calls for cream. Does it stay whipped after a period of time or do you have to re-whip it?
