Of course, nowadays nobody is coming to other's houses without notice, but in my childhood days, it was like that. People use to come home without notice and join us for lunch or dinner accordingly. And sometimes people used to come in the evening and stay up till dinner, so my mom's slogan was that if you have kandi podi and rasam in the pantry you can feed any number of people. So any podi or powder come handy in such hard times.
We have a collection of podis in the blog, you check here for them also.
