Things To Grab

    Directions

    1. In a large heavy saucepan, whisk together coconut milk, 1 cup shredded coconut and agave nectar. Bring to boiling. Remove from heat and let cool.
    2. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl and discard solids. Stir in vanilla and salt. Cover and chill for 4 to 24 hours.
    3. Pour chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and process according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a loaf pan. Sprinkle with remaining coconut. Cover and freeze until firm.
    4. If desired, serve ice cream with pineapple wedges.
    5. *Note: To crack a coconut, use the back of a chef's knife to tap along the equator of the coconut. When it cracks, pry it open a bit and drain the coconut milk into a bowl. Continue to tap until the coconut splits open.
