About this spice

Star Anise, from Northeast India.

Star anise is sourced through estate partners in India's northeast. We sort for whole, unbroken eight-point stars, which hold their aromatic oils far better than broken pieces.

In the kitchen

  • Biryani and pulao
  • Slow-cooked meat curries
  • Broths and stocks
  • Chai and syrups
Tip. Add whole and remove before serving. It is potent: one star is often enough.
