Opening up young coconuts is so easy!! Why are some people so scared to do it. 😂 🥥 I've opened up probably 100s in my lifetime! Some tips and tricks to make the process easy: ✔️ put some padding on your counter ✔️ place a large cutting board on top ✔️ if your kitchen island is not sturdy like mine, place a tea towel on top of the cutting board ✔️ use a coconut opening tool, you can get them on Amazon ✔️ place a cloth over the tool so it doesn't splash coconut water everywhere. ✔️ cut the top off with some scissors ✔️ use a spoon to scoop out the meat ✔️ use a small knife to remove some of the fiber ✔️ weigh it out all the coconut meat and separate it into 100g portions and freeze it if you're not using it right away It took me just 20 minutes to open 4 coconuts and complete the entire process, and I got 360 g of meat. Super easy! 🎊 Hope that helps. 😁 Have a wonderful week, everyone. Xoxo Chef Crystal
Most people dont have that kind of coconut, and most people do not have special tools. Please redo this with the same condecending tone when using normal tools on normal nuts.

I have the same tool. The extra padding and cloth are smart. Unfortunately, the Coco Jack company went out of business a few years ago.
Ya but there are many coconut opening tools on Amazon. That's why they went out of business.
@@CrystalDawnCulinary I didn't know that! Thanks.
You don't need this much tool... Just use one BIG knife
no thanks I'm good with this lol.
Of course it is easy with a tool, that is designed for it... Wow... 😂
Yes! There are many on Amazon. 👌

People call it meat?
Yes coconut meat or coconut flesh. I don't like the term flesh so I use coconut meat.
