Chinese Star Anise is a hard, brown, star shaped; air dried fruit with shiny brown seeds. Chinese Star Anise has a very strong aroma typical of Greek anise. Use sparingly to avoid medicinal flavor.

Brew Chinese Star Anise whole in your chai tea with cardamom pods and cinnamon sticks for a delicious afternoon treat. You can also use Chinese Star Anise to add a unique flavor to your Baking Spices.
