Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:
Be sure you’re on the right page—coconut milk is made from the flesh of coconut, not the thin liquid found inside the ripe fruit. It gives the sauce subtle coconut flavor and a creamy texture. Look for regular and reduced-fat (“lite”) coconut milk in the Asian foods aisle.
