It is the pulp that is used as a flavouring for its sweet, sour, fruity aroma and taste. It is available as a pressed fibrous slab, or as a jam like bottled concentrate, and some Indian shops carry the dried pods. Usually it is the juice or paste that is used as a souring agent, particularly in south Indian and Gujarati lentil dishes, curries and chutneys, where its flavour is more authentic than vinegar or lemon juice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTamarind Product Specifications \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePacket: 200gm\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow is tamarind used in Indian cooking? \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eCulinary use\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe fruit pulp is edible. The hard green pulp of a young fruit is considered by many to be too sour, but is often used as a component of savory dishes, as a pickling agent or as a means of making certain poisonous yams in Ghana safe for human consumption.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e As the fruit matures it becomes sweeter and less sour (acidic) and the ripened fruit is considered more palatable.
