Star anise 八角 (bā jiǎo)
This small star-shaped spice (the Chinese name literally means “eight corners”) has a flavor similar to fennel seed. It is sometimes called whole star anise and should not be confused with aniseed. Find it in its whole star form or ground into a powder in the spice section at most supermarkets or at Asian grocery stores.
