Product description What is Star Anise? Star Anise is a dried, star-shaped fruit. It is typically used in Asian cuisine, and has a lovely sweet flavour. Add to red wine or port when making Gluhwein in winter or add to braising liquid when making oriental braised duck & to pot roast. The flavor, which is contained in both the seeds and the star itself, is very sweet and licorice-like, similar to aniseed (though the plants are not related). In China, which has used it for centuries, star anise is a key ingredient in five-spice powder (with cloves, cinnamon, fennel and Sichuan peppercorns). Perfect for savory recipes Despite its sweetness, star anise traditionally is used in savory recipes, particularly with meats. It often is added whole to soups, stews and braising broths, to which it adds a sweet-licorice-peppery flavor. Spice up your chai Not satisfied with store-bought chai blends?
