Jumlah Pesanan:

Asafoetida or asafotida is the dried latex ( oleo-gum-resin) exuded from the living rhizome, rootstock or taproot of an umbelliferous plant of varied species.
This dried gum resin and has a unique odor from its sulfur compounds that are present in it. It resembles the flavor of shallot or garlic and is used many times as a substitute. Asafetida was popular in Roman times and is now used extensively in all of the regional cuisines of India. Is also used in Persian cuisine and Middle-Eastern cuisines. It is used sparingly and produced mainly in India and Iran. Sulphur compounds in the sap explain its rather unpleasant smell and bitter taste, but when heated it releases an onion/ garlicy flavor. In India it is prized as Indian cuisine incorporates the 6 tastes in its meals – sweet, sour, salty, bitter, pungent and astringent. Asafetida is pungent just like garlic. Excellent for vegetarian foods as it imparts a very satisfying, robust taste to delicate dals ( lentils) and vegetables. Indian asafoetida enjoys an exalted position in the international market, being unique in blend and made with the finest ingredients.
Storage: Store in a dry, cool place in an airtight jar and out of direct light.
