I couldn't find tamarind paste but did find dried tamarind fruits
at local grocery stores in the hispanic foods section. Price
Chopper, IGA and Hy-Vee. I cut the dried fruits into maybe 1/2 by
1/4 inch pieces and add 1 tablespoon to the liquid mix i use.
(boil 1 cup water, 1/2 cup lemon juice, 1 tablespoon whole cloves
1 tablespoon dried tamarind and 1 tea bag till it reduces to half.
let sit overnight, strain and store in jar in fridge)
I couldn't tell any big difference in stickyness using the tamarind
instead of methi seeds, a little sugar or honey. A bonus tho was
all the tamarind seeds.....i now have a small forest !!!
