Tamarind Paste / Asam Jawa

asam jawa

In Nyonya dishes, we often use Tamarind Paste or the local here call it Asam Jawa. All this while we have been using the Asam Jawa that comes with the seed. Recently my mom tried using the Seedless Tamarind Paste by Adabi which she claims to be cleaner and easier to use. Of course but they are slightly more expensive.

In my coming recipes, I will use this type of Tamarind Paste coz it is easier to measure; by spoonful.
