Short description: Asafoetida (Ferula assa-foetida), also known as asafoetida or devil's dung, is one of the most characterful raw materials for the international food and pharmaceutical industries. This dried gum resin is famous for its intense, garlicky aroma, which transforms into a harmonious, onion-like note when heated. It is an indispensable ingredient in Ayurvedic cuisine, serves as a natural flavor enhancer in spice blends and is valued for its digestive properties in the production of supplements. We guarantee process-reliable quality through careful selection of the teardrops or bulk goods and batch-clean laboratory analyses in Germany.
Asafoetida, also known as devil’s dung, is a plant with the botanical name Ferula asafoetida. The use of asafoetida dates back to ancient India, where it was used as a spice and medicine. In the Middle Ages, asafoetida was used as a defense against diseases such as the plague.
The original Asafoetida gum resins come from Iran and are offered by Blumental Bayern GmbH as a manufacturer, supplier and wholesaler in the form of paste, powder, oil or dried resin. These products are made from high-quality raw materials and are free from artificial additives.
Asafoetida is still used today as a spice in Indian cuisine and is particularly popular in vegetarian and vegan dishes as it has a meat-like flavor. It is also used in Ayurvedic medicine to alleviate digestive problems and flatulence.
Asafoetida is easy to use. A small amount of the product can be added directly to dishes to give them a spicy flavor. Asafoetida can also be combined with other spices such as cumin and turmeric to create a delicious spice blend.
