Star anise is the fruit of a small evergreen tree native to Asia. These star shaped fruits are picked right before ripening and dried before use. They contain the same essential oil as the unrelated anise seed which gives the two a nearly identical strong, sweet licorice flavor.
It is used to flavor teas, marinades, and soups. It is also used in many Asian dishes.

Jerry, Franklin, Wisconsin March 13, 2013“Received my order and was excited to see the little extra item that was included. The spices of Star Anise and Cardamom pods will make, making my wife's homemade Chai Tea even better. I will definitely order again.
Thank you so much

Janice, Enfield, CT. December 16, 2012“After a desperate search for Star anise need for a Christmas simmering potpourri recipe failed in my area, I placed my 1st order with Nuts.com. I ordered my star anise via Fed-ex ground shipping on Friday morning, it arrived on Saturday! And...the packaging is as enjoyable as the product. Happy Holidays Nuts!”
Diane, Rochester, NY November 17, 2012“I ordered my items (whole cloves and star anise) on Thursday. They were dropped at my door 2 days later as promised. They are both wonderful! I am using the cloves for pomanders and it has been a pleasure because the cloves are large and not broken at all! The anise is so pretty too. I would order without hesitation from you again AND I will spread the word about your excellent product! Thanks again....”
Esaam, Maumee, OH November 15, 2012“Holy Toledo! Now that's what you call service! Ordered star anaise two days ago and got it today packed and vacuum sealed. The most Aromatic I ever purchased. I will return! ”
Brenda, Butler, PA October 24, 2012“Thank you for sending the beautiful star anise and whole nutmeg to us so fast! It arrived 2 days after I placed my order. My son is using it in a school project...he is making all-natural, non-toxic "Simmering Potpourri" to sell for a leadership project. When I opened the front door this morning, I was happy to see the delivery. My smile was extra wide after seeing your fun box and packaging! Thank you for the generous quantities. Great quality and value!”
C.P. , Astoria, NY March 13, 2012“I just ordered 1 lb of Star Anise for my mother who uses it for tea. It arrived in 2 days flat. She told me upon opening the box the whole kitchen was inundated with the smell of Anise. Your product is excellent, I will only order from you guys from now on!!!!”
Janine March 5, 2012“I had been unable to find star anise locally, so I began looking online and immediately found your store. Needless to say, the anise wasn't the only thing I bought that day. Your products, prices and service are amazing! You have become my family's favorite store! ”
Paulette A Tam March 15, 2011“Aloha (Hello) Nut Family: I usually cook with the dark star anise; however, the lighter star anise surely packs intense flavor, which surprised me. I haven't ever had such fresh star anise here in Hawaii.
Mahalo (Thank you) for your time.
I appreciate it.
Have a Hauoli (Happy) Day, Nut Family!
Aloha (good bye)”
UltimateCook, Deerfield, IL February 8, 2011“I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! I stepped out the front door to see how cold it was (freezing) and saw a box on my front porch. I was like a little kid on Christmas morning. I opened it up and was so excited that I started opening everything and tasting everything. Because it's so cold here the licorice was stiff but that didn't stop me and it still tasted awesome. Then the cherries and the figs and the mango and of course the malted milk balls. Gotta catch my breath then I opened what I originally wanted to get, the star anise. Do you hear church bells ringing? It smells like heaven and I will never run out again. I put them in my Deluxe Hot Apple Cider recipe and I just can't live without that aroma. I could go on and on but I have some snackin' to do. Thanks a bunch for warming up a very cold Chicago day.”
Regina, Central City, Ky October 6, 2010“I was shocked when my friend told me NuTS on Line Package was here! I said Already! Amazing. I couldn't wait to open my first order of Star anise to make chai Tea, and the Cinnamon sticks, and Chia seeds to see if my sugar would go down. To my surprise I got free samples of Crystallized Ginger which I love , and Organic Quinoa which I never heard of. I LOVE IT!!!!FAST<> FRESH! and delicious. Just got it not 15 mins ago and I had to get on here and let everyone know how please I am. Thank you so much! And may God continue to Bless all you Nuts on Line... LOL luv that, and this is how I found you all when searching for Star anise.
I will be ordering again and recommending you to all my herbal friends,
Forever a costumer...
