The best way is to hold the coconut in one hand and look for the natural seam that runs between the two eyes at the top. Using a large knife or cleaver use the back of the knife to tap firmly round the seam. You may have to do this a few times but in the end the coconut will split into two halves. You can then ease the coconut flesh out of the shell using a sharp knife and chop or grate ready for use.

To dry coconut effectively for long-term storage, first remove the coconut meat from the shell and shred or slice it into small pieces. Then spread the coconut pieces in a thin layer on a baking sheet and bake in the oven at a low temperature (around 200F) for about 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally. Alternatively, you can also air dry the coconut by placing the pieces in a well-ventilated area for several days until completely dry. Store the dried coconut in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for long-term storage.
