Rasam powder is most important item in our kitchen. We use this for making saaru, gojju, sambar, and more.. In my previous video I showed my mother’s way of making the rasam powder. This is udupi style rasam powder i learned from a chef from udupi. The major difference between our method and udupi style is they use coconut oil, and they don’t use pepper, and mustard seeds
