COCONUT MILK WHITE BREAD
Do not confuse canned coconut milk with canned cream of coconut, which is even
more concentrated and sweeter than the milk. No need for extra fat or sugar in this
moist, slightly dense-textured bread; the coconut milk naturally provides both. Be sure
to shake the can well before opening it since the solids may have settled to the bottom.
This is the perfect bread to serve with Thai food, with crawfish omelets, or with barbe-
cued jerk chicken, cole slaw, and the “holy trinity” of Creole food—shallots, celery,
and green peppers.
