Product Description
In ancient times, this treasure from Asia was so valuable that Marco Polo kept its origin a secret. Star anise is an eight-pointed star with delicious flavors of fennel and green anise. It is the perfect companion for your punches, mulled wines, and infused rums, and it also finds its place in broths, chutneys, compotes, and syrups.
Star anise, with its enchanting flavors, is a fantastic spice to enhance your everyday dishes! Star anise, also known as aniseed star, is a versatile spice as it is used in both savory and sweet dishes and even in beverages. It can be used crushed, ground, grated, or whole.
Star anise pairs wonderfully with fruity desserts. It can be added whole or ground to your desserts, such as compotes, jams, and marmalades. Star anise is the perfect ally for all your pastries and goes well with cinnamon and ginger. Grate it into your creamy desserts (crème brûlée, rice pudding, custard) to add a touch of originality! Star anise also accompanies your savory dishes. It blends perfectly when infused in broths, sauces, and marinades, delicately enhancing fish and white meats.
Try it in your soups and creamy soups; it subtly enhances the flavors of your dish. Star anise is widely used in Chinese cuisine. You can add it to a vegetable or noodle stir-fry.
Star anise has more than one trick up its sleeve! Indeed, it is even used in beverages. It will perfume teas, infusions, and even milk-based and/or chocolate-based drinks. When added to punch, mulled wine, or rum, star anise becomes a great success.
Usage Suggestions:
Add Star Anise to fruit salads or punch to give it an aromatic flavour. It goes very well slightly crushed and applied directly over pork and chicken, but can also be used whole, in soups and stews.
