That looks so good. I've used tamarind, but never gotten it right. I think I need to get over my aversion to adding lots of sugar and accept that it's necessary for pad Thai. If I'm already eating my weight in oiled rice noodles, I might as well just do so.

ha. well, you could use something like agave nectar. it's more sweet than sugar so you can use less.

Mmm, thank you! I can never get my pad thai quite right. It looks yummy. That's a lot of tamarind paste, though - I think there's about 3/4 c in the container I buy. It must not be that strong? Or maybe mine is more concentrated?

not sure. the stuff i buy is very very very tangy on it's own. cut with the soy sauce, sweetener and noodles, though - it mellows perfecly.
