DetailsThese blocks of tamarind pulp are the tamarind fruit pods stripped of the outer husk and compressed tightly together. Sometimes the seeds are removed, but we usually find a few errant seeds even in packages marked “seedless.” The pulp itself is very fibrous, so we need to soften it and push it through a fine meshed strainer to separate the edible pulp from the strands of fiber.Diet GuidanceKetoWorks well for this diet.½ to 1 cup (≈ 70 to 140 g)DashWorks well for this diet.½ to 1 cup (≈ 80 to 120 g)FlexitarianShould fit most needs.½ to 1 cup (≈ 60 to 120 g)Low-FODMAPSmall amounts only.½ cup cooked (≈ 45 g)SIBO(Phase 1)Avoid for this dietSIBO(Phase 2)Avoid for this dietVeganUse mindful portions.1 to 2 tablespoons pulp (≈ 15 to 30 g)VegetarianUse mindful portions.1 tablespoon (≈ 15 g)PaleoUse mindful portions.1 to 2 tablespoons pulp (≈ 20 to 40 g)MINDBetter kept limited.1 to 2 tablespoons pulp (≈ 20 to 40 g)IngredientsRaw tamarind pulp (seedless).
