Once the coconut is opened , it is attracting fruit flies and other flies. Also, the white color changes to brownish, rendering it unusable. Is there any way we can "save" an opened coconut. I do not have a refrigerator yet, so techniques that don't involve a fridge are appreciated. |

I would suggest just put some plastic foil around it, so the bugs aren't on it. And don't put it in direct sunlight. Since you have no fridge, maybe search for a 'cooler' place (cellar, cabinet, a place where the sun never comes etc.) to put it. I myself take out all the meat of the coconut, put plastic foil around it and put it in the fridge. That way, it's good for a couple of days. Do you have a freezer? You can also put some in there. It will be good for longer than a couple of days (up to a couple of months if you preserved it well). I have no idea how it turns out afterwards. I'm guessing it will be a bit less 'juicy'. Another way to preserve it, is to dry the coconut. But this will of course damage the flavour. |
