2 life hacks: How to easily peel or split a coconut
If you decide to eat fresh coconut flesh, then the question immediately arises: how to split or peel it to get to the juice or snow-white pulp. If you don’t know about the life hacks described below and immediately try to “open” a coconut, then it will be an extremely difficult and time-consuming task (you can see this here - https://home.washerhouse.com/en/5255-kak-odolet-kokos.html). Let's look at two ways that can easily solve this difficult problem.
First life hack: how to peel a coconut
It turns out that you can peel a coconut like a boiled chicken egg. To do this, you need to wrap it in plastic wrap.
And put it in the freezer for at least 12 hours.
After a fair amount of freezing, the insides became one piece, and the shell became more fragile. Now a few blows of the hammer are enough to crack the entire fruit.
Next, pick up the screwdriver and remove the entire shell without any problems.
The result is a perfect “egg”.
Well, what to do with the softness then is up to you when everything thaws.
Second method: how to simply split a coconut
If you just need to split a coconut into two halves, this life hack will help. Each fruit has spots that can be easily pierced with a hard object. Just pierce them with a screwdriver and drain the juice.
Next, you need to take a bowl of water and use your finger to wet the longitudinal strip on the coconut.
Then you need to wait until the peel is completely wet, 15 minutes will be enough. Now we just take the fruit and hit it on a hard surface.
The splitting will occur exactly where the surface was wetted.
