asafoetida
origin: Pakistan
A pungent scent of onion or sulphur, asafoetida is often used as a substitute
for onion or garlic. Some religious followers in India refuse to eat garlic
or onion as they enflame the base senses so asafoetida is used as a substitute.
Despite the pungent scent, the spice is a very useful addition to the
cupboard and complements many diverse dishes.

or add to vegetable curries
