How to choose sáp coconut
Shake to hear the sound of water
- Sáp coconuts usually have a solid flesh, so they contain very little water, and many coconuts have a liquid consistency that is not like regular coconut water. Therefore, when shaken, there will be no gurgling sound like regular coconuts.
- You should choose coconuts that make a sound when shaken, but the sound is not clear; it is likely that this is the highest quality sáp coconut.
Feeling when holding in hand
- You should choose to buy coconuts that are lighter in weight than regular coconuts.
- Because sáp coconuts have quite little water and the water is thick like glue, their weight will be lighter.
Based on the size of the fruit
- The size of sáp coconuts is usually divided into 4 types: Extra large over 1.5kg, large over 1.2kg, medium from 0.7kg to 1.2kg, small under 0.7kg.
Information about Trà Vinh sáp coconut
- Sáp coconut is a specialty of Trà Vinh homeland, most famously in Cầu Kè district.
- Rare sáp coconuts are because they are very picky about soil and difficult to grow. Even with the same type of sáp coconut or from the same bunch, the ratio yielding sáp only accounts for about 20-40%.
- You can eat sáp coconut by using a spoon to scrape the coconut flesh to eat fresh on the spot. Or transform it into a dish of coconut with milk or smoothies, which is also very delicious.
