Add an unmistakable depth of aroma and taste to your dishes with Hing Strong 50g by AL MODINA Japan.
Also known as Asafoetida, this powerful spice has been a cornerstone of Indian, Bangladeshi, and Middle Eastern cooking for centuries.
With its bold aroma and potent flavor, just a small pinch transforms simple meals into gourmet experiences.
Hing, scientifically known as Ferula asafoetida, is a natural resin extracted from the roots of a fennel-like plant grown mainly in Iran and Afghanistan.
Once ground and blended, it becomes a fine yellow powder known for its intense, savory aroma — often described as “earthy, onion-garlic-like, and warming.”
In traditional Indian and South Asian cooking, Hing serves as a vegetarian substitute for onion and garlic, making it popular in halal and sattvic diets.
