Asafoetida (Ferula asafoetida, family Apiaceae) is a resin gum which comes from the dried sap from the stem and roots of the wild fennel genus Ferula. Today, the most commonly available form is compounded asafoetida, a fine powder containing asafoetida resin, along with edible starch and gum arabic. Historically Asafoetida has been used to support stomach problems.
