Thai tamarind is known for excellent, exotic sour flavor. It grows on beautiful large trees, and comes in small pods (about an inch thick). The outer skin is a thick paper-like material, you simply peel and eat the flesh inside. We're pleased to offer this fresh, pure, natural imported tamarind for a very reasonable price. Each pack has 16 oz net weight, and contains approximately 20 pods. Steam sterilized for quality preservation. Ingredients: 100% sweet tamarind. Product of Thailand.
