It’s a condiment. It’s a spice. No, it’s a bean. The “Tamarindo”, as the tamarind is sometimes called, is all of the above. Tamarinds contain high levels of tartaric acid, just as citrus fruits contain citric acid, providing not just a zing to the taste buds, but evidence of powerful antioxidant action zapping harmful free radicals floating through your system. Tingling Tamarind Candy is made of just tamarind pulp and sugar and wrapped in little plastic wrappers twisted at each end. It is soft, fruity, slightly sour, chewy, and the overall flavor of this candy is just perfect.
