Also known in India as Hing. Derived from a species of giant fennel,
asafoetida has a unique smell and flavor. It is called for often in Indian
cooking, primarily with legumes and dishes featuring vegetables such as
cauliflower. While on its own, the smell may strike you as overpowering and
somewhat unpleasant, in cooking it mellows out and produces a result similar
to onion and garlic. In India this ingredient is crucial for the Jains, who do
not eat root crops. Contains asafoetida microfine powder, wheat and rice
flour, gum arabic. This authentic Asafoetida, or Indian Hing, is very popular
throughout the world. Use sparingly, as this spice has a strong flavor and
aroma. Asafoetida makes Indian and other dishes easier to digest.
