Can You Freeze Condensed Coconut Milk?

Published in Food Preservation 1 min read

Yes, you can freeze condensed coconut milk.

The video reference confirms that freezing leftover canned coconut milk is a good way to avoid waste. Frozen coconut milk can then be used in soups, stews, and sauces. The video specifically suggests pouring the coconut milk into ice cube trays for easy portioning.

Freezing condensed coconut milk, like regular coconut milk, may affect its texture slightly. After thawing, it might not be as smooth as it was before freezing, and some separation may occur. However, this doesn't significantly impact its flavor or usability in cooking.

Here's a simple way to freeze condensed coconut milk:

  1. Portion: Pour the condensed coconut milk into ice cube trays or freezer-safe containers in desired serving sizes.
  2. Freeze: Place the trays or containers in the freezer until solid.
  3. Store: Once frozen, transfer the cubes to a freezer bag or keep the containers sealed to prevent freezer burn.
