It's Jamie here! This is the first in a series of cooking videos I'm making with The Benzonia Public Library, each featuring an underrated pantry ingredient - this time, that ingredient is coconut milk!
There were some technological difficulties in filming this video, but I hope you appreciate the recipes nonetheless.

I'm especially curious to know what you guys would put on your coconut rice pudding (yum!) See you again next Friday for another (hopefully in-focus) cooking video!
