Now this sounds interesting, but you'll have to clue me in. What is Rasam powder?


I have purchased the Rasam Powder at Indian food stores - it is a combination of many spices and I was given a recipe for the same - here goes 1 tablespoon black peppercorn
2 tablespoons of channa daal
2 tablespoons of toor daal
2 tablespoons coriander seeds
4 to 5 whole or broken red chillies
1 teaspoon asafoetida
and then comes the question what is asafoetida here it is - Asafeotida sap is mixed with gum arabic, wheat, rice flower and turmeric to make the powder we use in cooking. All in all I believe if you visit an Indian food store they will help you out.


I would love to make this soup..
