Star Anise – Whole Vietnamese Pods for Pho, Braises & Mulled Drinks

Star Anise is prized for its distinctive star shape and complex flavor profile. These whole Vietnamese pods are harvested in fall when the flowers open, revealing brown seeds within woody husks. With aromatic notes of clove and cinnamon, star anise enhances pho, braises, mulled drinks, soups, stews, and desserts. Like bay leaves, it's typically removed before serving.
