Hing Powder

Hing, also known as asafoetida, is a pungent and flavorful spice commonly used in Indian cooking. It is made from the resin of the Ferula plant and has a strong, aromatic scent that mellows out when cooked, adding a savory depth to dishes. Hing is often used in dals, curries, pickles, and as a tempering in various Indian recipes. It is particularly valued for its digestive properties and is often added to legume-based dishes to reduce bloating and improve digestion.
