TAMARIND PASTE
Preparing tamarind paste is quite simple, and homemade paste has the added advantage of keeping for several months in the refrigerator, the result of its high acid content. Tamarind fruit comes in two forms: as blocks of fruit pulp or as whole fruit pods. If working with tamarind fruit pods, make sure they're unripe, which ensures a stronger degree of sourness and less sweetness. And don't forget to remove and discard the outer shell to use the pulp. Blocks of tamarind can be obtained from Indian and Asian grocery stores or online.

Steps:
- Separate the tamarind into small chunks and place the fruit into a medium heatproof bowl. (If using whole tamarind pods, remove and discard the outer shell and use the soft fruit inside.)
- Pour the boiling water over the tamarind, submerge completely, cover with plastic wrap, and let sit for 30 to 45 minutes. Stir the tamarind occasionally with a fork at first, then, as the water cools, rub the fruit between your fingers to separate it from the seeds. The mixture will turn thick and pulpy.
- Set a fine mesh sieve over a medium bowl and pass the mixture through to remove any fibrous materials and seeds, pressing firmly with a large spoon to squeeze out as much liquid as possible and scraping the tamarind from the bottom of the strainer into the bowl. The final consistency should be thick, almost like ketchup. Transfer the tamarind paste to a clean jar or container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.

- You will be cutting off a 125 gram/4.5 ounce piece from your tamarind block. I recommend using a kitchen scale to weigh it. If you don’t have a scale, try to use the full weight listed on the package to decide how much to cut off. For example, one half of a 500 gram block would get be the same as 250 grams. Half of the 250 gram chunk would be 125 grams and so on.
- Take a closer look at the tamarind chunk you just sliced off. Notice the lighter fiberous parts. You’ll strain these out later on. Remember, these lighter parts are not the seeds, although they may appear that way.
- Pour 250 ml/one cup of hot tap water or enough to cover the tamarind in a bowl. The smaller your bowl, the less water you’ll need to cover the tamarind. If you find your hot tap water isn’t very hot, you can use half tap water, half boiled water. The exact temperature of the water isn’t important, just make sure it’s almost too hot for your your hand to touch. Using cooler water won’t ruin things, but it will make the tamarind harder to break up in later steps of the recipe.
- Pour the hot water into the bowl with the tamarind. The water should completely cover the tamarind. Soak the tamarind for 20 minutes.
