About Rasam Powder
Every ingredient is roasted on its own before grinding. Coriander seed needs longer than cumin, and pepper needs less than either; roasting them together is faster and is why most shop rasam powder tastes flat and smells burnt at the edges.
The dal content is deliberate. It gives rasam body without the starchy slick you get from adding rice flour, and it is what lets a rasam sit on the stove for twenty minutes without turning bitter.
Ground fine enough to dissolve, coarse enough that you can still see the pepper.
Ingredients
Everything that goes in, and nothing that does not. No preservatives, no chemicals, no added colour.
- Dhaniya
- Red chilli
- Black Pepper
- Jeera
- Chenna dal
- Black Gram
Ground in a facility that also handles wheat, groundnut, sesame and tree nuts.
How to use
Two teaspoons to a litre of tamarind water.
Add after the tamarind has boiled off its raw edge, never before.
Take it off the heat the moment it froths — a boiled rasam is a lost rasam.

Finally a rasam that stays clear
I have been buying a well-known brand for years and never understood why my rasam always went muddy. It was the powder. This one settles and the top stays clear the way my mother's did. The pepper is coarse enough that you catch it.

Two spoons is enough
Much stronger than what I used before, so I have had to halve the quantity. The 500g will last me six months at this rate which makes it cheaper than it looks.

Good, but order the small one first
Excellent powder. Only reason for four stars is that it is noticeably hotter than the Chettinad style I grew up with, so check before you commit to half a kilo like I did.
