Key item features
Five spice powder is made of five ingredients, with the fifth one always being up for debate. Star anise, cloves, fennel seeds, and cinnamon are mandatory. Then it gets tricky; either the fifth spice consists of black peppercorns or Sichuan peppercorns. It really depends on who you ask in China. Heck, even in Southern parts of China the cinnamon is switched out for dried tangerine peel.
So like most blends there are rules to its composition, but you only follow them if you want to and if you can agree on whose rules to follow.
This blend is used mainly as a rub or marinade ingredient for pork or duck as it brings out their savory, naturally salty flavors. This also combines well with garlic, scallions, ginger, and soy sauce.

About this item
Product details
Most five spice powders are disappointingly one note. They promise a balanced blend of savory, sweet, and bitter but all too often it’s just a mouthful of star anise. Not that that’s bad or anything but it’s not what you wanted. It’s like ordering a pizza and the delivery guy just brings you a box with a wedge of cheese in it. This is five note. As advertised.
Five spice powder is made of five ingredients, with the fifth one always being up for debate. Star anise, cloves, fennel seeds, and cinnamon are mandatory. Then it gets tricky; either the fifth spice consists of black peppercorns or Sichuan peppercorns. It really depends on who you ask in China. Heck, even in Southern parts of China the cinnamon is switched out for dried tangerine peel.
So like most blends there are rules to its composition, but you only follow them if you want to and if you can agree on whose rules to follow.
This blend is used mainly as a rub or marinade ingredient for pork or duck as it brings out their savory, naturally salty flavors. This also combines well with garlic, scallions, ginger, and soy sauce.
