Experience the soul of Herat with our Wild Afghani Hing. This funky, intensely aromatic resin represents the real hing in its purest form.
Caution: Extra Bold Strong Aroma!!!

Heray Spice’s Wild Afghani Hing (Asafoetida) is sourced from the rugged Pashtun District in Afghanistan, where wild ferula plants grow untamed.

Harvested by local forager Fazl Ahmad, this resin is never diluted or blended. It remains free from fillers like rice or wheat flour.

Unlike commercial powders, this Afghani Hing is potent and unapologetically bold. A tiny pinch crushed in hot oil releases deep umami. A little goes a long way behind exceptional dal, sambar, and rice dishes.
