This star-shaped wonder spice is used to give a distinct flavor to your meat dishes and is also used as a flavoring agent in mulled wine.
Star anise is a spice made from the fruit of the Chinese evergreen tree Illicium verum. It’s aptly named for the star-shaped pods from which the spice seeds are harvested and has a flavor that is reminiscent of licorice.
This wonder spice is an impressive source of several powerful bioactive compounds — all of which are vital contributors to good health. The most valuable component of star anise may lie within its dense supply of flavonoids and polyphenols.
These may primarily be responsible for the spice’s broad applications and medicinal benefits
