Madhusudan Hing

 Madhusudhan Hing, or asafoetida, is a pungent spice used in Indian cooking that transforms into a savory, garlic-like flavor when cooked. Made from the resin of the Ferula plant, it's commonly added to dals and curries, especially in vegetarian dishes. Besides its culinary role, hing is also known for its digestive benefits in traditional medicine.
