In culinary applications, kookosöljyssä implies that coconut oil has been used as the cooking medium or as an ingredient. Its distinct flavor and aroma can impart a tropical note to dishes. It is often used in baking, frying, and as a spread. Due to its stability at room temperature, it can also be used in raw food preparations.

Beyond the kitchen, kookosöljyssä might refer to its use in personal care products. Coconut oil is a common ingredient in soaps, lotions, shampoos, and conditioners. It is valued for its moisturizing and emollient properties, believed to help soften and hydrate skin and hair. Various traditional and modern health and beauty practices incorporate coconut oil for its perceived benefits.
