How to Open a young coconut with a kitchen knife

Here Michelle Pearson will show you how to open a young coconut with a kitchen knife. Follow these steps to cut open a young coconut with a kitchen knife: Turn the coconut on its side and hit it with the part of the knife that is closest to the handle. Don't hit it too close to the end, and don't cut too deep because the water will spill out. Pop the 'cap' off with your knife, and enjoy the delicious fresh coconut juice inside.
