Star Anise - 100g
$5.99
Star Anise is a striking, star-shaped spice with a powerful, sweet licorice-like aroma native to southern China and Vietnam, widely adopted across South Asian cooking for its unique and complex flavour. In Indian and Nepali cuisine, whole star anise is used as part of the whole spice blend — alongside cinnamon, cloves, and cardamom — added to biryanis, pulao, and slow-cooked meat curries where it imparts a warm, exotic depth. It also appears in masala chai recipes, where it contributes a subtle sweetness and aromatic complexity. The flavour is intense, so a little goes a long way. The 100g pack provides excellent value for the amount used per recipe. Customers love star anise for the beautiful, layered aromatic character it brings to special rice dishes and spiced brews.
