I do not use gluten. Is hing available in a GF way? I'd like to try it but not in the wheat form shown above.
We would be very happy to find a gluten-free supplier. Do you know of any?

Thanks Stephanie!
I find it difficult to use. I was expecting a powder. The chunk is hard to cut and it seems to stay in one little lump when cooking it.
Have the same query about it being GF free.Its common practice everywhere when sold single.Would be great to find it free too especially for candida sufferers.
Hi Goshman, We carry the block of asafoetida because it stays fresh longer- we feel that's an important element since we are shipping products our office. We apologize for those of you who can't use this product due to gluten intolerance or candida.
