Category: Fruits
Tamarind arrives in its pod, ready to peel so you can get to the tangy-sweet pulp inside. That concentrated pulp is the base for refreshing juices, desserts, and even sauces with that sweet-tart edge that pairs well with meats and seafood. To use it, peel the pod, separate the pulp from the seeds and fibers, then dissolve it in water with sugar for a traditional juice, or cook it down for candies and preserves. Keep the pods in a cool, dry spot until you're ready to peel and use them.
