It is widely used in vegetarian cooking, particularly in lentil dishes, curries, and pickles, where it acts as a flavor enhancer and digestive aid.

In-Depth Description

Hing, or asafoetida, is derived from the resin of the Ferula plant and is characterized by its strong aroma, which mellows when cooked, imparting a savory, umami flavor. Suhana Gluten-Free Hing Powder is carefully processed to ensure purity and quality. It is typically used in small quantities due to its potent flavor, making it a highly effective ingredient in enhancing the overall taste of dishes.

The powder is especially popular in Indian vegetarian cuisine, as it provides a flavor profile similar to that of onions and garlic, making it an excellent substitute in recipes where these ingredients are omitted. Its digestive properties also make it a traditional remedy for bloating and gas.
