Dear Madame, thank u for the recipe for rasam powder. I find there is no uniformity in preparation of Rasam Powder in South India. Kannada, Telugu and Tamil people all prepare Rasam powder . but there is some difference . I personally like the one prepared by telugu people as it is more spicy . Saaru prepared using fresh Saarina Pudi and Aralu sandige by karnataka cooks is also my favourite. It is my personal opinion that to judge a hotel, we have to taste Masala dose in that hotel. similarly to judge a home, we have to taste rasam in that house. yours truly, Sarveswaran
