Rasam Powder(Rasam Podi)
Rasam Powder is a key ingredient for the Rasam which gives the spice, flavor and taste to the Rasam. We make Rasam Powder in bulk quantity and keep it in an airtight container and use it for many months. Making home made rasam powder is very easy. We need to dry roast the spices/ingredients and grind it to powder to get the aromatic rasam power. There are different variations in making the rasam powder.. I am giving the one which is being used by generations of my family.

Home made Rasam Powder is always fresh and aroma rich than the store bought powder. We can make fresh powder each time we make rasam, but that would be tiresome especially when we are in hurry. So homemade rasam powder would be so helpful to make instant rasam. We can easily make this at home as the ingredients needed for making it are readily available in our kitchen. There are many variations in the making of this powder. The advantage of having home made rasam podi will be to get the taste of the rasam the way we want and as per the custom of the family.
There are lots of variation we can add it to Rasam Powder. Other variations we can try:
1. We can roast handful of curry leaves and grind it along with other ingredients. Curry Leaves are very healthy and a way to make children consume curry leaves without picking and discarding
2. We can also add 2 tablespoon of chana dal (Kadalaparuppu)
3. My mom used to add little turmeric also along with the basic ingredients
4. I usually add hing while making rasam and not with rasam powder. But if you want, you can add a teaspoon of hing while grinding thepowder
