I hate coconut anything. Cashew milk sounds like a partial solution, it just lacks the body. Is there some other product without resorting to tofu?
If using a milk beverage, you might try a roux to make it thicker.
I Love This Soup!!!
Is the coconut milk sweetened or unsweetened?
This is original, full-fat coconut milk, not coconut milk beverage, so it doesn’t come in sweetened/unsweetened varieties – only one, just coconut milk!
