Is this a Chinese version with its strong anise flavor. It's so convenient to make this mix from pantry staples I have on hand. See update be low

Time 40m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoons anise seed
2 tablespoons fennel seeds
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons whole cloves
2 tablespoons peppercorns

Steps:

  • 1. In a spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle, combine all ingredients (in batches if necessary); grind until mixture becomes a fine powder. Store in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
  • My update Note: I play with this and ended up mixing half of this with a half cup of brown sugar and rubbing it on raw chicken. I then sprinkled soy sauce over the top. Considering that chinese five spice is so expensive, it's really better that I can make it at home. This way, I'm not out seven dollars for a spice I might only use a couple of times.
  • I made a variation from the original and added a tablespoon of powdered ginger to the mix instead of the pepper. hope this helps somebody.
