中国五香粉

它是什么？

A warm and fragrant spice blend common in Chinese cuisine. It’s typically composed ofstar anise,cloves,茴香种子,cinnamon, and Sichuan peppercorns. Licorice root and ginger are also components of some recipes.

没有吗？

You can alsogrind your own five-spice powderfrom whole spices, although some of the components are as hard to find as five-spice powder itself. The advantage of making it yourself is that, like all freshly ground spices, it will be more potent than its pre-ground counterpart.

How to choose:

Some well-stocked supermarkets carry five-spice powder (McCormick sells a version). Or check at an Asian market.
