Product Description
Star Anise (Illicium Verum) is a star-shaped fruit from an evergreen tree that is native to China. These trees can bear fruit for over a century. The tree bears yellow flowers that ripen into brown star-shaped spices. The Star Anise seeds are not as aromatic and flavorful as the pod. Star Anise is an important spice in Chinese and Vietnamese cooking and is an essential ingredient in the Chinese five spice powder. Star Anise is not the same as Anise Seed. Both Star Anise and Anise Seed share the essential oil, Anethole (Licorice Taste), which is why these spices have a similar flavor. Star Anise has more of a robust flavor than the Anise Seed.
