Asfoetida is actually a powder made from the gum of the herb, Ferula. It is called hing in India and you will see it labeled as such in Indian stores. It has a faintly onion flavor and is a staple in lentil dishes as well as the rogan josh. Let me know if you are able to get your hands on some!

Pretty sure you’ve played Didu and Ashish, Mom, Dad, and I have all been the role of MIL in your own life’s stories of cooking in the kitchen! Demanding? Particular? Rows ensuing? … 😉

Wouldn’t have it any other way though – we do get the best food as a result!
