IMLI

Homemade imli (tamarind) is made from carefully deseeded, cleaned, and sun-dried tamarind pulp, preserved in its natural form without additives. Known for its tangy, sour-sweet taste, imli is a beloved ingredient in Indian kitchens — used in chutneys, curries, rasam, sambar, street foods, and refreshing drinks. In Ayurveda, tamarind is valued for its digestive, cooling, and detoxifying properties. It not only enhances flavor but also provides essential minerals and natural antioxidants.
