Chinese Five Spice

Five-Spice powder is the common blend found throughout China. It embodies the essence of the five sense – salty, sweet, bitter, sour, and umami (savory). The ratios will vary but the ingredients are the same. This is a floral and earthy blend with the star anise being the flavor lead. Great for braises, marinades, sauces, and stews.

1 ½ cups fennel seeds, ground
1 cup Sichuan or black peppercorns, ground
½ cup whole cloves, ground
2 cups anise seed pods, ground
1 cups cinnamon, ground

1. Grind all spices together in Vitamix or other high-powered blender. Mix and store in an airtight container in a cool, dry area.
