Vandevi Yellow (Asafoetida)

Vandevi Yellow Asafoetida – Hing for Indian Cooking

Add depth to everyday dals, curries and vegetable dishes with Vandevi Yellow Asafoetida, also known as hing. This distinctive Indian seasoning has a pungent, earthy aroma that mellows during cooking, bringing a savoury flavour to your favourite recipes. A small pinch goes a long way.

For a comforting bowl of dal, warm a little oil or ghee, add your tempering spices and a pinch of hing, then stir the fragrant mixture into the cooked lentils. It is a simple finishing touch that brings another layer of flavour to a home-cooked meal.

Ways to Use Asafoetida

• Dal tadka: add a small pinch to your tempering with cumin, mustard seeds or dried chilli.
• Vegetable sabzi: use in potato, cauliflower and other vegetable dishes for savoury depth.
• Curries and pulses: include in the spice base for chickpea, bean and lentil recipes.
• South Indian favourites: use a little hing in sambar, rasam and seasoned vegetable dishes.

Cooking Tips

Start with a small pinch and adjust to your recipe. Add briefly to warm oil or ghee over a controlled heat, taking care not to burn the seasoning, before adding the remaining ingredients. Cooking softens its strong raw aroma and helps distribute the flavour throughout the dish.

Storage and Product Information

Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to help contain the strong aroma. Check the packaging for the full ingredients, allergens and dietary suitability before use.
