NIKITA Star Anise - 400g
Star Anise is a visually striking, star-shaped spice harvested from the evergreen Illicium verum tree. Known for its powerful, licorice-like aroma and deep mahogany color, it is a foundational ingredient in both Eastern and Western professional kitchens.
This 22 Lbs (10 kg) Wholesale Case is designed for industrial food production, high-volume spice blending, and commercial kitchens that require a consistent supply of premium-grade, whole pods.
Product Features
- Intense Licorice Aroma: Contains high levels of anethole, providing a sweet, pungent, and warming flavor profile that is more potent than anise seed.
- Whole Pod Integrity: Carefully handled to ensure a high percentage of intact 8-pointed stars, which is essential for visual garnishes and slow-release infusion.
- Industrial Bulk Value: The 10 kg format offers maximum economy for manufacturers of spice blends (like Five Spice or Garam Masala) and large-scale catering.
- Natural Flavor Enhancer: Beyond its own flavor, Star Anise acts as a natural enhancer for the savory notes in meats and the sweetness in desserts.
- 100% Pure & Natural: Pure dried fruit pods with no additives, dyes, or preservatives.
Professional Applications
- Asian & Fusion Cuisine: A core component of Chinese Five Spice, Vietnamese Pho broth, and aromatic braising liquids for meats.
- Indian Specialties: Essential for authentic Biryanis, Pilau, and rich meat gravies like Korma.
- Beverage Infusion: Used in bulk for flavoring mulled wines, spiced ciders, artisanal gins, and specialty teas like Chai.
- Confectionery & Baking: Adds a sophisticated aromatic layer to syrups, jams, and spiced baked goods.
Materials & Care (Storage)
- Bulk Packaging: Delivered in a reinforced wholesale case or heavy-duty bag to prevent breakage of the delicate star points.
- Preserve the Oils: To maintain the volatile aromatic oils, store in a cool, dry, and dark environment.
- Seal for Freshness: Once the bulk seal is broken, transfer the stars to airtight bins to prevent them from becoming brittle or losing their scent.
