Hing, a resin of amber hue derived from the root or stem of a perennial plant, serves various purposes across numerous cultures. Known scientifically as Ferula Assafoetida, Hing has a rich history of use that spans ancient Persia, Greece, Africa, and India. This spice has played diverse roles, from its association with black magic and protection against the evil eye to its effectiveness in alleviating digestive issues, making it a significant element in global cultures.
