Dried Tamarind

Dried Tamarind

EverydayDried

Dried tamarind is the preserved pulp of the tropical tamarind fruit, sold in compressed blocks or pods with a sticky, date-like texture. Its intensely tangy-sweet flavor comes from high concentrations of tartaric acid, a natural preservative also linked to digestive benefits. Widely used in Asian and Latin American cuisines, it requires soaking to create a versatile paste for sauces, soups, and candies while providing notable dietary fiber and B vitamins.
