The power of plants
Native to East Africa, the tamarind has gradually spread across the semi-arid and tropical regions of the world. Its magnificent leafy branches offer the perfect shady spot for siestas, or for discussions between local wise men—hence, its reputation as a sacred tree in certain regions of Africa. In the culinary arts, the tangy pulp contained in the tamarind fruit’s brown pod is used to make refreshing beverages.
