If you’ve been looking through the recipes we’ve been posting, then chances are you’ve run across Tamarind a few times! Tamarinds are a type of fruit that are five inches long, but pucker up, it contains a pulp that gets extremely sour when it gets dry! That pulp, is also the main portion of the fruit that’s used for food, used in many candies and dishes throughout Asia and Latin America. It’s a shame they aren’t more popular here in the states though, I love my sour food, but we as a unit seem to have more of a sweet tooth!

It lowers your cholesterol, helps promote a healthy heart, and is a good source of antioxidants that fight against cancer. It helps your body digest food, is a mild laxative and the red outer layer of the seed can help relieve diarrhea and dysentery.
