Hing oil, also known as asafoetida oil, is derived from the resin of the Ferula assa-foetida plant. It is occasionally used as a flavoring ingredient in processed meat and seafood products. Hing oil has a strong, pungent, and distinctive aroma with a flavor profile often described as savory and reminiscent of onions and garlic. When incorporated into processed meats or seafood, hing oil can provide a unique and bold taste, adding depth and complexity to the overall flavor profile. The specific application and dosage of hing oil may vary among different manufacturers and product formulations to achieve the desired flavor balance and intensity.
