When you begin to see the coconut water dribble out you then begin to work your manner across the dome, now you possibly can maintain your knife flat. As within the image simply use the rear to mid space of the blade in a sawing sort movement.
By the time you’ve got labored your knife roughly midway across the fringe of the dome, it is best to have the ability to insert the knife and utilizing the flat of the blade, lever up the coconut dome.
You now have entry to the extremely nutritious and great tasting coconut water, do not waste it!
Use a spoon to scrape out the younger coconut meat.
That’s it, you are performed now, congratulations 🙂
