Anise is a member of the Apiaceae family and native to the Mediterranean. The herb was cultivated in ancient Egypt and is now grown worldwide. Anise seeds are aromatic and have a sweet flavor, similar to fennel and licorice. Our anise powder is milled from organic Pimpinella anisum seeds. Anise seed powder is frequently added to cakes, baked goods, soups, herbal syrups, infusions, and cordials.
Anise is a member of the family of plants that includes carrots, caraway, cumin, dill, fennel, and cilantro. It has a strong licorice-like flavor and scent, and the essential oil is used to flavor licorice candy. Foods with licorice flavoring often contain anise and not any licorice at all.
Our anise powder is milled from dried whole fruits (seeds). Anise is used in French carrot dishes, East Indian curries, Hispanic stews, and Scandinavian breads. It balances the flavors of bay leaf and cinnamon. Anise is also used to flavor liqueurs such as ouzo, anisette, pastis, Pernod, Ricard, anesone, ojen, aguardiente, arrak, kabib, and raki.
The process of heating anise in baked goods releases compounds that act as very mild stimulants. The anethole released in grinding and baking slows the decay of the baked goods that otherwise might result from fungi or molds. Anise is also used to flavor many herbal remedies.
