Organic Star Anise Whole – 50g, 100g, 250g, 500g, 1kg | SpiceBloom

Discover the bold, aromatic essence of SpiceBloom Organic Star Anise Whole, a prized spice native to China and now organically cultivated in India. Recognized for its signature star-shaped pods and sweet, licorice-like flavour, star anise is a cornerstone of traditional Asian cooking and a key ingredient in Chinese Five Spice blends.

Harvested while still green and sun-dried to perfection, our star anise offers intense, warm flavour that becomes even more pronounced during slow cooking. The pods are more aromatic than the seeds, and even broken pieces infuse dishes with deep complexity.

Commonly used in marinades, braises, BBQ rubs, soups, roasts, and stews, star anise adds a sweet-spicy kick to both savoury and sweet recipes. It pairs beautifully with ginger, cinnamon, cloves, soy sauce, orange zest, mint, and chilli peppers, making it an incredibly versatile pantry staple.

Available in 50g, 100g, 250g, and 500g packs, our organic star anise is a flavour enhancer you’ll reach for time and again.
