Description

Asafoetida is made from the dried resin of ferula plant. Rock Asafoetida also known as Katti Perungayam in Tamil is a unique spice that has been used for centuries in Indian cuisine for its pungent aroma and distinct flavour. It is very potent and a little goes a long way. A pinch of it can transform the taste of any dish.

     But Katti Perungayam is more than just a seasoning. It's loaded with health benefits too! It's known to aid digestion, reduce bloating and even relieve respiratory issues. This natural spice is also great for maintaining healthy blood pressure levels.

      Katti perungayam is versatile in its use, and it's a great addition to many dishes. Try adding it to soups, curries, and lentils for an extra burst of flavour. You can even use it as a natural preservative for pickles and thokku.

How we prepare ?

        How many of us know that usually the store bought asafoetida has added Maida in it? Do you know why they add such flour along with Asafoetida? It’s because original asafoetida resin is very pungent in nature and it’s not ideal for everyday use. Even if you add a bit extra in the cooking, it will spoil the entire dish. So the flour is being added in proper ratio along with asafoetida thus making it ideal for cooking.

          Unlike other commercial stores, we use wheat flour as a replacement to Maida. We follow proper ratio in adding wheat flour and asafoetida without affecting its aroma and benefits. No artificial colours or chemicals added in the making process.
