Essential Oil Hing (Asafoetida)

Essential oil Hing: The species is native to the deserts of Iran and mountains of Afghanistan and is mainly cultivated in nearby India^.  As its name suggests, asafoetida has a fetid smell, but in cooked dishes, it delivers a smooth flavour reminiscent of leeks.

It is also known as devil’s dung, asant, food of the gods, jowani badian, stinking gum, hing, hengu, ingu, kayam, and ting. The plant is in the same genus as the now extinct silphium.
