Hing, also commonly referred to as Asafoetida, was discovered back in the twelfth century. It might also be popularly referred to as stinking gum, food of the Gods, hingu, heeng, devil's dung and jowani badian. To add to this list, Ferule Asafoetida in French and Tyib in Arabic.
This spice is extracted in the form of dried latex from the Ferula Assa-Foetida, hence Asafoetida. This common Indian household spice is used in Indian cuisine extensively to add flavours to the dishes. The gum-resin is found inside the roots of the plant. The plant of this herb grows considerably in the mountains of Afghanistan and deserts of Iran and some parts of India and Pakistan as well. The demand for hing can be perfectly recognised by the fact that India consumes over 40% of Hing produced worldwide
The crucial role played as a digestive aid by Hing is the foremost reason why earthy aroma can be smelled in Indian kitchens even today. And despite the pungent odour present due to the presence of sulphur compounds, the antibiotic and medicinal properties of Hing have captured eyes to an extent that it will be safe to refer to this spice as a secret weapon.
