My local guy selling fruit and veg off a camioneta is now offering packets of tamarind seeds. They are about the size of a peanut, slightly flattened and a shiny (moist?) golden brown.
I have seen them in La Sirena too, but there they are very dark blue/gray. Have these already been prepared in some way? I know only one variety of tamarind exists, so that cannot explain the difference.
I know about eating the flesh of tamarind but how are these seeds used? I like to try local products but cannot afford stomach problems.
