[Expiry Date: 30/04/2027] Woolworths Essentials Coconut Milk 400mL

Woolworths Essentials Coconut Milk 400mL. It’s a plant-based coconut milk — a dairy-free alternative commonly used in cooking, especially in curries, soups, desserts, sauces etc. Because the coconut extract is only ~50%, this product tends to be lighter than richer canned coconut milks/creams that use a higher proportion of coconut. Some critics note that the added guar gum (a thickener) may affect texture or flavour compared to coconut milks made purely from coconut and water.

• Dairy-free, suitable for vegans or those avoiding dairy.
• Lighter than full-fat coconut cream — good if you want coconut flavour without heavy richness or high saturated fat.

Ingredients

Coconut Extract (50%), Water, Thickener (Guar Gum)

Storage Instructions: Keep in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, empty contents into an airtight container, refrigerate at 1-4°C and use within 2 days.

Usage

• Curries, soups, stews — as a dairy-free creamy base.
• Sauces, gravies, or lighter coconut dishes where a less-heavy coconut milk is desired.
• Vegan or lactose-free cooking, since it’s plant-based.
• Recipes where coconut flavour is wanted without the heavy richness (or fat content) of coconut cream.

Consideration

• Because coconut content is only 50 %, the coconut flavour and creaminess will be milder compared to richer, fuller-fat coconut milks / creams.
• The presence of a thickener (guar gum) — common in such products — may subtly affect the texture or “mouthfeel,” which some people may notice.
