A coconut is not really a nut but the stone fruit of the coconut palm. This coconut has a brown, hairy shell with white flesh on the inside. The fruit also contains coconut water, but much less than the drinking coconut.

Coconuts should be stored, before sale, at a temperature of 12 to 15 degrees Celsius.
Store whole coconuts at room temperature. Pieces of coconut are best kept in the refrigerator to avoid discolouration.
Coconut flesh is delicious to eat on its own, but it can also be grated or pressed into coconut milk. Coconut milk and grated coconut are frequently used in soups, sauces and stews.
Extra tip for the consumer
Grated coconut is delicious as a garnish for a fruit salad or in desserts.
