Heeng/Asafoetida
Heeng, also known as asafoetida, is a resin obtained from the sap of the roots of Ferula, a perennial herb native to Afghanistan and Iran. It has a strong and pungent odor, which is why it is often used in small quantities in cooking. Despite its strong smell in raw form, when added to hot oil or ghee during cooking, heeng imparts a unique flavor to dishes.
Heeng is a common ingredient in Indian, Middle Eastern, and some Southeast Asian cuisines. It is particularly popular in vegetarian dishes and is used as a spice or seasoning. In addition to its culinary uses, heeng has been traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine for its potential digestive and medicinal properties.
The resin is usually sold in a powdered or solid form and is often combined with other ingredients like wheat flour or gum to make it easier to handle and use in cooking. It’s important to note that only a small amount of heeng is needed to add flavor to a dish, as its taste can be overpowering if used in excess.
Raw Asafoetida:
- This type is more commonly found and is usually in solid or resin form. It has a strong, pungent smell and needs to be cooked or tempered before adding to dishes. In its raw form, it can be quite intense, so it’s used sparingly in recipes.
Compounded Asafoetida:
- This type is a milder version of raw asafoetida and is mixed with other ingredients like wheat flour or rice flour. The addition of these ingredients reduces the pungency of the spice, making it easier to handle and use. Compounded asafoetida is often preferred for everyday cooking.
