Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ideal quantity of hing per dish? A tiny pinch — approximately 1/8 teaspoon — is sufficient for most dishes serving 4 people. Hing is extremely potent and a little goes a very long way.

Does cooking hing change its flavor? Yes — the raw smell of hing is intensely pungent and unpleasant but when cooked briefly in hot oil, it transforms into a savory, mellow, onion-garlic-like flavor that enhances the entire dish.

Can I use LG Hing in baking? A tiny pinch of hing in savory flatbread dough, cracker dough, and gluten-free baking can add an interesting savory depth — it is used this way in certain traditional South Indian preparations like thattai and murukku.
