FRESH Q MACAPUNO COCONUT STRIPS -340G
0.890 KD
A soft, translucent, jelly-like strings of a special coconut preserved in sweet syrup, commonly used in Southeast Asian desserts. The 340g jar contains these ready-to-eat strings.
The product consists of the flesh of the macapuno or “coconut sport”, which is a rare coconut cultivar that has a naturally occurring genetic abnormality resulting in a thick, soft, and glutinous endosperm instead of the usual firm meat and water. These strips are preserved in a sweet syrup, making them convenient for immediate use in various culinary applications.
The texture is the most distinct feature, described as soft, jelly-like, and even gooey or sticky, lacking the crunchiness of regular coconut meat. The flavor is a mild, subtle, nutty coconut taste with a pronounced sweetness from the syrup. They are a popular ingredient in traditional Filipino desserts like halo-halo and pastillas, used in baking for things like ube macapuno cake, or simply enjoyed on their own, ideally served chilled.
