Rasam<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

South Indian meals, particularly lunch, is never complete without some tangy, sour, digestives such as the moru (curd) rice and another soupy dish called rasam. Rasam means “juice”. Rasam commonly refers to soup prepared with sweet-sour stock made from either kokum or tamarind, along with tomato and lentil, added spices and garnish. The Karnataka and Andhra varieties are called saaru in Kannada and chaaru in Telugu, respectively. The spices used include chili pepper, black pepper, cumin etc.<\/p>\n\n\n

It is eaten with rice or separately as a spicy soup and can be consumed hot or cold. Rasam has a distinct taste in comparison to the sambar due to its own seasoning ingredients. Given its usage as a regular dish in daily meals, Rasam Powder is prepared and stored in airtight containers beforehand.<\/p>\n\n\n

Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

Rasam is prepared mainly with kokum, kadampuli\/kachampuli (malabar tamarind) or tamarind stock depending on the region, along with tomato stock.
