Hi All! I have a problem I'm hoping someone has a solution to.
I froze my canned coconut milk then added my lye slowly, it was fine until I had to abandon the process due to an emergency. So it sat there on the counter overnight and the next day. Now my lye/milk mixture is the consistency of soft shortening or something. The spoon stands straight up in it!
This method of freezing the coconut milk has worked for me several times before but I used the mixture right away. Now I'm wondering....is there a way to re-liquify it? My thoughts are either to add a little water or to re-warm it in a hot water bath. Or both.
Has anyone ever encountered this before? I don't want to chuck it and start over or ruin it because I don't have anymore coconut milk right now.
Help?
