Greenfields Whole Star Anise

Whole star anise or ‘star aniseed’ adds the warm notes of anise to Indian curries and Chinese red-braised dishes. 

Greenfields are a second generation UK-based family business. Greenfields’ herbs and spices are used by restaurants, artisans and street food producers across the country – all who enjoy their great value products. For caterers and restaurants the kitchen-safe and easy-to-use resealable plastic tubs for their larger size packs of ingredients are extremely popular. And for home cooks the smaller packets of spices are great for filling your spice drawer. The Greenfields philosophy is to provide good quality products at a great price.

Star anise is rich in a natural oil which can solidify when exposed to low temperatures. The crystallised oil may look like small glittery particles among the star anise. However, once the star anise is warmer the particles will disappear.
