Product Information

Ground aniseed, also known as anise powder, is derived from the seeds of the anise plant (Pimpinella anisum) and has a distinctive licorice-like flavour.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Anise is a delicate, annual herb of the parsley family, which grows to 50cm tall (20 inches) and has feathery, flat, serrated leaves with a shape similar to the Italian flat parsley you get in the supermarkets.Anise star pods are also chewed after a meal as a traditional Ì_åÌ_‰̴ۡå̱breath mintÌ_åÌ_‰̴ۡÕå and carminative. All points will expire after 365 days but don’t worry, we’ll send you a helpful reminder before they expire.

If you have any specific product queries or require precise ingredient information you should consult the manufacturer, whose contact details will appear on the packaging or label. It is also used as an ingredient in natural cough and sore throat remedies available at the pharmacy.Due to its licorice-like taste, our Ground Aniseed can be added to teas, doughs, and pie fillings for a blast of spicy-sweet flavour. Steenbergs Organic Ground Aniseed is a sweet spice that complements sweet baked goods really well, so is used in biscuits and cakes in Germany and Italy. The herb is used to flavor Ì_åÌ_‰̴ۡå̱marbled eggsÌ_åÌ_‰̴ۡÕå and many Asian soups, in Thai iced tea, and in Peking duck.

Curiously, anise seems to be very popular with pheasants as we have had a number of enquiries over the years by gamekeepers who add it to their feeds, as well as some fishermen who incorporate it into bait for match fishing.

Sprinkle on to meat and veg prior to roasting or add to sauces, soups, marinades, and salad dressing or use as a dry marinade for prawns, white fish, chicken, duck, beef, pork, and veg.
