Sarina Pudi (Rasam Powder)

Some spice blends are the soul of a cuisine. Sarina Pudi Karnataka's traditional rasam powder is exactly that. Known as Saaru Pudi in coastal Karnataka, this aromatic spice blend is the heart of every bowl of rasam made in a South Indian home. Each spice is carefully dry-roasted until fragrant, then ground to a fine powder using a time-honoured recipe passed down through generations. The result is a bold, earthy, deeply aromatic powder that transforms a simple tamarind and tomato broth into something truly comforting.

Beyond rasam, this versatile powder adds depth to sambar, gojju, bisibelebath, and everyday vegetable curries making it one of the most essential masalas in any Karnataka kitchen.
