Complex and vibrant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis tamarind-date sauce is inspired by Shidni, a delicious and irresistible Somali chutney usually reserved for special occasions such as feasts. Shidni has many variations but the base recipe usually calls for a combination of either tamarind and dates or tamarind and mangoes – seasoned with xawaash (a Somali spice blend).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this version, sweet dates and tart tamarind are simmered for hours in a fragrant infusion of fresh ginger, garlic, bell peppers, and cilantro; then seasoned generously with an exotic spice blend that includes cardamom, cloves, and star anise. The result is a bold and tantalizing sauce that is slightly sweet, sour, savory, and spicy – all at once. It’s hard to resist!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA perfect substitute for enchilada or barbecue sauce, and makes the most delicious AfroBeats Pad Thai to rival any restaurant version.","brand":"The Epicurean Trader","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47583424250043,"sku":"860008165824","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0712\/5588\/3963\/files\/ade09397fba8afd1e37fdb28b1538d7b.jpg?v=1774245145","url":"https:\/\/shopwonderwall.com\/products\/kitchens-of-africa-mombasa-tamarind-simmer-sauce-12oz","provider":"wonderWall","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
