Fresh Sweet Tamarind (Imli)

Description

About the Product

Fresh Sweet Tamarind is a mild, tangy-sweet variety of Imli enjoyed as a natural snack rather than a cooking souring agent. Every batch from Call Seasons Fresh is Farm Fresh, Premium Quality and Carefully Hand Selected.

Origin

Our sweet tamarind is sourced from Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, particularly the Chikkaballapur and Kolar belts, along with parts of Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh.

Sourcing

We work with growers in these southern belts who harvest sweet tamarind pods during the winter season, then pack them for onward delivery.

Taste & Texture

Sweet tamarind offers a tangy-sweet flavour with soft, pulpy flesh inside a brittle pod shell, milder and sweeter than regular souring tamarind.

Storage & Shelf Life

Store at room temperature in the pod for a few weeks, or refrigerate shelled pulp for extended freshness.
