You'ld do a little better if you used the more standard spelling
gamboge but it is called "fish tamarind" sometimes and used to
remove the smell of old fish. I remembered the name from its
other use as a yellow pigment.

You already got your answer, but this is another reason why
everyone should own Charmaine Solomns "Encyclopedia of Asian
Food". Mine's practically falling apart I use it so much. And I
only bought it in 1998 or so.

Very thorough description in there. Also knows as 'goraka' in
Sri Lanka, and 'korrakkai-pulli' and 'kodampuli' in India. More
info and uses on the net under those terms.

Thanks !

I have the book but in German ;-) !
