Tamarind Juice
YIELD: 4 CUPS (948 ML)
Making tamarind juice is likely every
toddler’s dream, because handling the
pulp is without question messy—sticky
and mushy! But if you persevere (or ask
your little ones to start you out), you’ll
have liquid gold that is the tart and
tangy base of most Indian chaats,
tamarind rice, and even soups and
drinks. Make up a batch and keep it on
hand in the fridge for up to a month or
in the freezer for even longer—just like
soup stock.
