{"product_id":"star-anise-mostly-whole","title":"Star Anise, Whole","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere’s no doubt, star anise gets my vote for the coolest looking spice in our collection. The beautifully aromatic star shaped, dried pods come from the evergreen tree. Each point contains a small, tough-skinned seed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStar Anise has a powerful sweet and spicy flavor. Think licorice and root beer. Mmmmm. It can be used whole or ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo fresh grind star anise (and you’ll want to grind it fresh), we also sell the perfect tool. Check out our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/reluctanttrading.mom\/products\/microplane-spice-mill-black\"\u003eMicroplane Spice Mill\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBTW, we ship our star anise in an oversized tube just to protect the stars. You’ll get mostly whole stars in each tube - though you can expect a few broken anise pieces too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse star anise to infuse flavor in tea, cocktails, soups, stews, and baked goods. Pairs well with citrus, onions, poultry, beef, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBTW, Webster says “anise” is pronounced “ann-iss.” Though, it’s a free country. You can call it whatever you want.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Reluctant Trading Experiment","offers":[{"title":"2oz tube","offer_id":29896674345039,"sku":"FF-SA2ozT","price":8.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/1289\/products\/Star_Anise_Fresh_Whole_India.jpg?v=1567788293","url":"https:\/\/reluctanttrading.mom\/products\/star-anise-mostly-whole","provider":"The Reluctant Trading Experiment","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
