    Where do you buy Tamarind Puree - is it the same as Tamarind paste and is there a preferred brand for this recipe?

      Yes, tamarind paste is the same thing as puree. You will be able to find reliable brands at your local supermarket, Asian food store or specialty food store. For more, see the glossary on this site.
