Star anise, whole
Star anise is probably one of the most decorative spices in the world. The eight-pronged fruit grows on an evergreen tree located in Asia, from China to Vietnam. The aroma is reminiscent of liquorice or fennel. The spice can be used in many different ways thanks to its complex flavor notes, ranging from sweet to spicy. Whole, in pieces or ground, star anise is mainly used for cooking and pickling sweet and savory dishes, as well as hot drinks.
