Badshah Rasam Powder 100g

Badshah Rasam Powder (100g) is a popular choice for those who enjoy a North Indian brand’s take on this South Indian classic. It is specifically blended to balance the “sweet, sour, and spicy” notes that define a good Rasam.

Price Guide (February 2026)

The price for the 100g pack varies significantly based on the platform and current flash sales.

Note: In international markets (USA/Europe), this same 100g pack typically retails between $1.50 and $2.50.

What’s Inside?

Unlike traditional South Indian rasam powders that are heavy on pigeon pea (toor dal), Badshah’s blend focuses on aromatic intensity. Key ingredients include:

• Coriander & Cumin: The aromatic base.

• Black Pepper: For that signature “back-of-the-throat” heat.

• Dry Mango (Amchoor): To provide tanginess without needing as much tamarind.

• Star Anise & Big Cardamom: Unique additions that give it a slightly more “soupy” and complex aroma compared to regional brands like MTR or 777.

How to Use It (The “Quick Fix” Method)

1. Prep: Boil 2–3 mashed tomatoes in water with turmeric and a little salt.

2. Add: Stir in 2 tbsp of Badshah Rasam Powder and a small amount of tamarind water.

3. Temper: In a separate small pan, heat ghee and pop mustard seeds, dried red chilies, and lots of curry leaves.

4. Finish: Pour the tempering over the boiling rasam and garnish with fresh coriander.
