Basic Information
Star Anise, a pillar ingredient in Chinese cooking, is one of the main flavors in Chinese five-spice powder. In Vietnamese cuisine, Star Anise is part of the well-known soup. Our Star Anise comes from Guangxi Province, famous for its quality. There’re two harvest seasons for this item, spring and autumn. We generally work with Autumn harvest because quality is much better, and with good shape, better color and flavor, compared to the spring harvest, because the fruits grow longer time. Star Anise is mainly produced in western and southern Guangxi province in China. It is mainly harvested in spring and autumn, but the aroma of Star Anise of autumn is stronger. It can be used to promote kidney, liver and spleen function.
