5 Spice Powder 250g Bag (Very Strong)

Chinese 5 Spice is a popular East Asian seasoning blend—typically star anise, cloves, cinnamon, Sichuan pepper, and fennel seeds—that balances sweet, sour, bitter, salty, and umami flavors. This aromatic, warm powder is used as a rub for meats, in marinades, for stir-fries, and in baking, providing a sweet-and-spicy, slightly numbing flavor.
