About Santan

Santan, widely known as coconut milk, is a creamy liquid derived from grated coconut flesh blended with water. Prominent in Southeast Asian, South Indian, and Caribbean cuisines, it adds a rich, velvety texture to traditional dishes like curries, soups, and desserts. Santan contains essential nutrients such as healthy fats, vitamins C, E, B1, B3, B5, and B6, along with minerals like iron, calcium, and magnesium. Its medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) can potentially boost energy and aid digestion. However, it is calorie-dense and high in saturated fat, so moderation is key for those mindful of heart health or weight management. Typically used in culinary applications rather than consumed directly, Santan serves as a versatile and flavor-packed ingredient, enhancing both sweet and savory recipes with its distinct aroma and creamy consistency.
