Forbidding the fruit of the coconut is actually quite easy to open. In order to open it at home, just need a few minutes. If done correctly, you can get delicious juice and gently split a fragrant pulp.

Instruction

Coconut, like any other fruit, be sure to wash under running water.

Take a large knife and the blunt side split coconut. Crack need pre-stressing place. This is best done at a distance of 1/3 cm from the location of the holes (near eyes), in this period the fetus has a lower density and easy to crack.

After the crack was formed, insert a knife and divide into two parts coconut. Then you can split into such pieces that you need. The pulp is usually rubbed on a grater and use in cooking. If the pulp is severely hard, the fruit was overripe.
