Brown sauce was born in India as the famous tamarind sauce. Over time, most brown sauces have used less and less of it. So we’ve put tamarind back at its heart. It’s a plant packed with minerals and B vitamins. With its sweet, tangy, fruity flavours and hints of ginger, this is brown sauce as it should be.
