Regal Ground Anise - 4 lb. - 4/Case

Bring powerful spice to your kitchen pantry with Regal 4 lb. ground anise that's ready to add flavor and depth to a variety of dishes! Ground anise delivers a strong aroma and licorice-like, warming flavor to foods and beverages. Use this spice to deepen the flavor of tomato-based sauces, jams, as well as meat and poultry dishes, especially pork and duck, and even mulled wine or cider. Like star anise, anise seed gets its distinctive licorice taste from a chemical compound called anethol. The two are not related botanically, though, as star anise is a member of the magnolia family.

Essential to East Asian cooking, anise seed is used in Vietnamese pho, spiced chai, braised beef dishes, and a multitude of other recipes to give a warm, spicy undertone. Additionally, it is one of the essential spices in Chinese five spice, a blend used in a wide variety of cuisines. This 4 lb. container of ground anise seed is ready to use and a cost-efficient option for high-volume kitchens. Dehydrated spices also last longer than fresh ingredients and are easier to store, making them the perfect addition to any busy, high-output kitchen. Plus, this anise is already ground, saving valuable prep time in your kitchen as a ready-to-use-ingredient to measure with teaspoons or sprinkle in recipes. Contact rep for pricing.
