THEMATIC Thursdays: Coconut Milk

Coconut milk is becoming popular as alternative to soy milk, which some people are allergic to--and which is reputed to be estrogenic, thereby making it less desirable for men to drink--and almond milk, which some simply don't enjoy. Coconut milk is slightly, naturally sweet, so it's being used as a sweetening agent, as a thickener and as a flavoring. Vons Supermarkets (a Safeway-owned chain in Southern California) is selling coconut milk--as are many other upscale chains.

This is a reminder that I need to weave coconut milk into my cooking....
