Here’s the recipe for the Rasam powder I used in this Mysore Rasam. Like I said in that post, I don’t usually make spice powders from scratch. I know freshly homemade spice mixes add a lot of flavor to dishes but I get lazy to make them.

But when I saw this Mysore rasam in Dakshin cookbook by Chandra Padmanabhan, I was tempted to make the spice mix. Glad that I made it because this is one of the more flavorful rasam powder (I’m comparing it with the store-bought rasam powders).

The rasam powder can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2~3 months.
