Tamarind Dipping Sauce
Tamarind is a pod like fruit that is indigenous to tropical Africa, but has found its place in cuisine around the world. This recipe starts with a sweet and tangy tamarind base with warm hues of Jamaican hibiscus, rounded with premium tamari then seasoned with ginger and spices for a delicately balanced finish. If you are looking for Tamarind Chutney, this is it. Serve it as an accompaniment to naan bread and poppadum. It is equally perfect as a dipping sauce for dim sum or any Asian or Caribbean influenced hors d’ oeuvres. The crisp flavors of tamarind make this sauce a fast and easy salad dressing and sauce base.
