Prophet Enoch said
About the tree of knowledge
"It was like a species of the Tamarind tree, bearing fruit which resembled grapes extremely fine; and its fragrance extended to a considerable distance.I exclaimed, How beautiful is this tree, and how delightful is its appearance !
One of my favorite flavors to cook with in dishes but would like to bottle and preserve in a sauce."
The fruit pulp is edible. Pulp of young fruits is sour and acidic, but ripe fruits are sweeter. Some varieties are sweet, while others have always a sour taste. Young leaves can be used in salads.
Did you know that
Legend says that those who sleep under the Tamarind while it flowers will experience strange hallucinogenic dreams !

Rough measurements but here's what I use for tamarind ketchup: 1 shallot, a clove garlic, 1 cup tamarind paste, half cup passata (or chopped tomatoes with their juice),1 tbsp palm sugar, pinch of salt.Blitz everything, bring to boil & simmer for about 10 -20 minutes, to your taste. At this point, taste and adjust seasoning.Of course, you probably know that tamarind paste/juice will sit quite happily in the fridge for about a month, so I always get a huge amount done, so that I don't have to soften & squeeze the pulp everytime. x+Azlin Bloor
1,Take the tamarind fruit pulp (without seed), make sure its clean
2,dissolve in water then filter it
3,Heat it in a pan , with very few spoons of red chilly powder
4, crush some jaggery and add it into the sauce
5, the jaggery will thicken and the sauce , and release sweet flavour
Measurements can be adjusted depends on your taste
its takes hardly 5-10 minutes for the procedure ..
Most or all tamil nadu's Tamarind are sour by nature . we don't use sweet tamarind in our cuisine .
Enjoy the sauce :-)
ps. don't forget to tell me how it came :-P +Pradeep Jayabal
Beautiful tree; tamarind ketchup is a great idea.
In Mexico we used to drink agua de tamarindo, which is basically fresh tamarind blended with cold water, and some sugar.
