Dear listmates-
My thanks to everyone who responded.
Asofoetida is a powder, actually of a gum or resin of a
plant related to giant fennel. It is used in Indian (East
Indian, I think) cooking. Smells bad - tastes good.
Penn Herb claims theirs is pure Asofoetida, according to the
milling manager.
Frontier Herb Company has the powder of 25% Asofoetida,
25% gum arabic, and 50% rice flour.
The Spice House, recommended to me by one list member,
has rice flour AND wheat in it - unknown to this list member.
Hope she stops buying it. It does have gluten in it.
Have a great day, everyone!
Vicki
