Baldwins Asafoetida Gum Powder

Baldwins Asafoetida Gum Powder

Best known for its pungent and unpleasant smell when raw, Asafoetida Gum Powder originates from the sap taken from the roots and stem of the ferula species (fennel).

Used for centuries in Indian medicine and cookery, this gum is believed to give a smooth flavour (similar to leeks) when added to dishes, but also act as a digestive aid (by reducing the growth of indigenous microflora that can cause gas).

Aso attributed for its ability to fight colds and the flu; treat asthma and bronchitis, and work as an antibiotic amongst children in India; this versatile gum can improve both your health and your meals.
