--------  ------------  --------------------------------

     1/2         pound  tamarind pulp

  1                cup  sugar

                        juice of 1 lemon

 

Soak the tamarind paste in 4 cups of water for at least 10 hours. Then

dissolve the paste in the water with your hands or in a blender. Pass

through a fine sieve, pressing on the back of a ladle, and transfer the

liquid to a heavy-based saucepan. Stir in the sugar and place over low

heat. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes, or until thickened,

then add the lemon juice and continue simmering for another 20 minutes.

Pour into a sterilized bottle and seal the bottle only when cooled

completely.

 

To make the drink, use 1 Tablespoon syrup for each cup of ice water, or

adjust to your liking.

 

Makes 3 cups of syrup (48 one-tablespoon servings)

 

AuthorNote: The following is a very sweet drink, kept in massive glass

jars packed with ice or carried on the vendor's back in elaborate metal

containers. It provides a welcome refreshment at the height of summer heat

in Jerusalem or Cairo.
