Phil Am frozen shredded young coconut. No preservatives or sweeteners added. Just young coconut meat and water. It makes great raw noodles. This really is the freshest tasting coconut I have had outside of the tropics.

I'm pretty sure it's raw, by the taste of it.

I'm paying 2 dollars for a package for them, which seems to me like the juice from 1/2 of a young coconut and the meat from 2 young coconuts.
I use them in a warm miso broth as a raw noodle soup. I need something warm and comforting now that it is getting cold outside.

Rawstrength,
I just did a search for miso, cuz I wanna make a raw miso soup, but not sure how to do this AND the search brought up your name quite often... looks like you went thru a period of miso-mania a few months back. So, how do you eat it and how does one incorporate it into a raw food diet? How do you get it to dissolve? Right now, I have some South River Chickpea and some SR Dendelion Leek which I'm dying to try.....

THANKS for your help ((((((((RAWSTRENGTH)))))))))))

Hugs,
DG

My local asian store has something similar but with sodium benzoate, I decided to but it once to try and they were completely tasteless and I through them out.

It's been getting cold here so I have been making miso soup this way:

Heat up water.
Pour it into a wide deep cup.
Add dry chunks of wakame and letting it soften up this way
Add miso.
Mix with the tip of a knife.

I have loved miso for over 30 years.

Oh, I grate fresh ginger with skin and a sweet potato. You can use a carrot instead of potato, but I use only a little potato for color and lots of ginger for the heat. Oh, I hand grate and like it best that way as it is super fast and get strips vs. slices. I can even squeeze the ginger and make ginger juice into my soup. Or, you can even make ginger tea with squeeze method.

Oh, again, you could add a pinch of cayenne or paprika for color (cayenne, pinch for the sting/bite).
