Product Description

You’ll LOVE our Asafetida Whole by Rani Brand-Here’s Why:

Authentic Indian Spices Native to Southwestern Asia, a little known spice outside of India, Asafetida is the dried resin obtained from the rhizome of the giant fennel plant. Powdered asafetida has a strong odor, reminiscent of picked garlic. In most Indian cooking it is used as a flavor enhancer and once cooked releases an onion-like flavor. It is also known as devil’s dung, asant, food of the gods, jowani badian, stinking gum, hing, hengu, ingu, kayam, and ting.

• Asafoetida is an essential in Indian cooking and is used in a lot in dals, subzis and sambhars along with other spices like turmeric.
• Often used as a Garlic/Onion substitute, also in dal (soups) to offset/help digest beans & lentils.
• It is sometimes used to harmonize sweet, sour, salty, and spicy components in food.
• Asafetida is used as a digestive aid, in food as a condiment, and in pickling.
• Asafoetida can be used in two ways, either cooked in oil or ghee or dissolved in water to flavor sambars and kadhi.
