About Rasam

Rasam is a flavorful South Indian dish that's both a soup and a condiment, cherished in traditional cuisine. Typically made with tamarind juice, tomatoes, spices like black pepper and cumin, and fresh herbs, Rasam boasts a tangy and spicy profile. Protein-rich lentils, such as toor dal, are often added to enhance its nutritional value. Served as a light appetizer or paired with rice, it is low in calories and rich in antioxidants, aiding digestion and boosting immunity. Rasam is naturally vegan and gluten-free, making it accessible to a variety of dietary preferences. Its use of turmeric provides anti-inflammatory benefits, while black pepper aids in nutrient absorption. High levels of sodium might be a consideration, depending on the recipe. Rasam’s wholesome ingredients and bold flavors make it a nourishing and aromatic staple in South Indian meals.
