Hing, also known as Asafoetida, is an aromatic and powerful spice used extensively in Indian kitchens, particularly in vegetarian dishes. Its pungent, sulphuric scent may seem off-putting at first, but once cooked, it transforms into a subtle, delightful flavor. Widely used in Indian cooking, it’s a favorite for making dals, curries, and even snacks. Often referred to as “the secret spice,” Hing is an essential ingredient for authentic Indian cuisine. Today, we bring you a unique variant — Hotel Special Hing, a top-tier quality of Hing used in restaurants and hotels for that distinct flavor.
