Punjab Tamarind Pickle Mild (390g)

Four fabulous ways to enjoy Indian Tamarind Pickle

Indian tamarind pickle, known for its tangy and mild blend of flavours, is a versatile condiment that can enhance various dishes. Here are five creative ways to incorporate this delicious pickle into your meals:

1. Flavourful Marinade

Tamarind pickle can be used as a marinade for meats like chicken, fish, or even tofu. The tanginess and spices in the pickle add depth to the proteins, making them more flavourful and tender. Simply mix a few spoonfuls of tamarind pickle with yogurt or olive oil and let the proteins soak for a few hours before cooking.

2. Sandwich Spread

Transform your ordinary sandwiches into gourmet delights by spreading a thin layer of tamarind pickle on the bread. It pairs particularly well with grilled vegetable sandwiches, cheese sandwiches, or even a classic grilled cheese. The pickle adds a zesty kick that complements the other ingredients.

3. Enhancing Curries and Stews

Add a spoonful of tamarind pickle to curries and stews to intensify their flavour. The tanginess can balance the richness of coconut milk or the earthiness of lentils. It’s a quick way to elevate the taste profile of your dish without overwhelming the existing flavours.

4. Savory Rice Companion

Mix tamarind pickle into plain rice or biryani for an instant flavour boost. The pickle’s spices and tanginess can turn a simple rice dish into a savoury delight. It’s also a great way to use leftover rice, making it a flavourful accompaniment to any meal.

Indian tamarind pickle is not just a condiment but a versatile ingredient that can enhance the taste of various dishes. Whether you use it as a marinade, spread, or flavour enhancer, it is sure to add an exciting twist to your meals.

 

Care instructions:

Do NOT Refrigerate EVER. Serve with a clean dry spoon and store in the pantry after opening.

This pickle will remain in perfect condition as long as you ensure there is no contamination from food or water particles.

Never return any unfinished portions to the jar or use a serving utensil used for anything else.
