    SE: Chinese 5 Spice Powder

    About.com
    By Linda Larsen - Busy Cooks Expert
    Total Time: 15 minutes
    Yield: 2 tablespoons

    Make your own Chinese 5 Spice powder seasoning mix using either ground or whole spices. This fragrant mixture is delicious in any stir-fry recipe, or you can rub it onto chicken before you roast it. Also try mixing a teaspoon with some oil and vinegar and use it to baste steak or pork while it's on the grill.

    Make sure that you use the freshest spices when making your own mixes. They should smell very strong and be very fragrant. For the freshest taste, grind your own spices from the whole type, but this mix is still very good made with pre-ground spices.

    Ingredients:
    • 1 tsp. ground Szechwan pepper
    • 1 tsp. ground star anise
    • 1-1/4 tsp. ground fennel seeds
    • 1/2 tsp. ground cloves
    • 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
    • 1/8 tsp. salt
    • 1/4 tsp. ground white pepper

    Preparation:
    Combine all ingredients in small airtight container and mix well. Store in a cool, dry place.
