TRS star anise (whole) or badian is a strongly aromatic and versatile Asian spice that is distinguished by a sweet and sour licorice flavor with a light peppery note, similar to anise.
It is an integral component of the Chinese Five Spice Mix, which is widely used around the world as an aromatic flavor enhancer for soups, stews, and sauce dishes.
Star anise is often added whole during cooking, such as in soups, stews, and broths, where it adds a sweet licorice and slightly peppery flavor to dishes. It can also be crushed to fully reveal its rich flavor and aroma.
This spice is also great as a marinade for poultry, such as Peking duck, or as a flavoring for pho soups and meat dishes.
TRS Star Anise is professionally packaged in 50g bags, ensuring long-lasting quality and aroma.
