Pulp
Pulp of Tamarind is sticky edible mass—tamarind paste around seeds. Soak and strain for cooking liquid. As a pulp section of pod, portion for even cooking and clear labelling. Prep tamarind pulp with a sharp knife, manage water content, and cook only as long as texture needs. Curries, drinks, chutneys, and sauces keep character in view. Discard spoiled parts.
