Description
- Coconut flakes contain antioxidants, such as phenolic compounds, that help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. Antioxidants play a role in reducing inflammation, supporting immune function, and lowering the risk of chronic diseases.
- Coconut flakes contain dietary fiber, which promotes digestive health by adding bulk to stool and supporting regular bowel movements
Dry coconut flakes are thin, light, and crisp shavings of coconut flesh that have been dried to remove moisture. They are usually made by shredding fresh coconut meat and then dehydrating it until it reaches a crisp texture. These flakes are typically ivory or off-white in color and have a slightly sweet, nutty flavor reminiscent of fresh coconut. They can be used as a topping or ingredient in various dishes, including baked goods, desserts, salads, granola, and savory dishes like curries and stir-fries. Dry coconut flakes add texture, flavor, and visual appeal to a wide range of culinary creations.
