Kamias

Kamias is a small, sour green fruit often used throughout Filipino cooking as a natural souring agent, particularly in sinigang and various regional stews. Also known as bilimbi, its sharp tartness offers an alternative to tamarind, reflecting the Filipino palate’s genuinely broad vocabulary for sourness.
