El link en Pinterest me dirigía a este sitio, de todas formas hasta abajo tiene la fuente (la chequé pero el link no funciona) I saw this photo on Pinterest and I loved it. I looked for it on Google but I’m not sure I found the original source. The link on Pinterest led me to this site. But don’t you worry, don’t you worry child, the photo has a source (I checked it but the link doesn’t work).

DIY Coconut Oil

I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling 23, and in this day and age of mass production I tend to feel like a Dapper Dan when I create and consume things for my very own personal use ( or a friend comes over with the puppy eyes.) While at a hard days work a “friend” called me out on my “alligator elbows,” rubbing this coconut mixture at night has been my best response. Enough of my banter here’s the list:::

Things you’ll need:

  • Blender/Grater
  • Pot
  • Strainer
  • bowl
  • Small container for storage
  • Butterknife or phillip head screwdriver

Heads up: The blender is your friend, seriously. Remember to only but small chunks at a time and for the amount of coconut you put fill half in water. As you can see in the pictures I started off with the grater and quickly remembered I had a Ninja in the cupboard.

***Steps:

  1. Break coconut into chunks (best when angry)
  2. Grate/blend chunks
  3. Strain into a bowl, this produces the milk
  4. On very low heat bring coconut milk to a boil
  5. Strain into storage bowl

It’s ok to  be impatient, but don’t turn the heat up, stay alert.

It takes time for the milk to boil down but with careful monitoring you will be able to detect when it starts becoming transparent and fluid.

**Remember the room temperature has an effect on the state of your oil. I left mine to cool with the lid off for a few hours and it stiffened a bit which is fine. Once it comes in contact with the heat of my fingertips it melts like butter.
