2-Ingredient Tamarindo Candy

tamarind pods

water

piloncillo

sugar

chile-lime seasoning (Tajin)

cacao powder

Remove the shells and as many veins as you can from the tamarind pods. Break them into pieces and add them to a bowl with hot water. Optional: Using a small knife, cut the seeds out of the pods before breaking them up.

Add in the sugar and incorporate with the pods using your hands for about 10 minutes (be warned it&#39;s very sticky, so gloves are handy).

Note: If the mix is too mushy or tangy, add in sugar a little at a time until it reaches your desired taste and a consistency that&rsquo;s able to be rolled.

Add any coatings you&rsquo;ll be using to shallow bowls. Using your hands, roll a portion of the tamarind mixture until smooth. Using 2 spoons, coat the ball in either chile-lime seasoning, more granulated sugar, or cacao powder.

Continue this process until all of the tamarind balls are formed. Transfer to your fridge for storage. Happy eating!
