In a Keto Diet
100 g of the product contains about 660 kcal, 6 g of protein, 66 g of fat, and 24 g of carbohydrates, of which 9 g are fiber.
It fits well into a keto diet due to its low glycemic index (≈30) and low glycemic load.
Due to its high fat content and low digestible carbohydrate amount, dry coconut milk helps maintain ketosis. It can be used in drinks, desserts, sauces, baking, and first courses, adding a creamy texture and coconut flavor.
The optimal serving is 1–2 tbsp per dish; this will add healthy fats without exceeding the carbohydrate limit.
Usage Recommendations
- dissolve in warm water or directly in the dish, using a whisk or blender for uniformity;
- combine with other fat sources (olive oil, avocado) for macronutrient balance;
- store in an airtight container in a dry, cool place;
- do not add sugar; if necessary, use stevia or erythritol.
Dry coconut milk is a versatile ingredient that enriches the diet with healthy fats, adds a rich flavor to dishes, and is suitable for low-carbohydrate eating.
