Star anise comes by its name honestly, with its star shape and licorice taste similar to regular anise, only stronger. It is about one inch high with eight segments and a dark brown rust color. Like regular anise, star anise gets its distinctive licorice taste from a chemical compound called anethol. Star anise is the unusual fruit of a small oriental tree. It is, as the name suggests, star-shaped, radiating between five and ten pointed boat-shaped sections, about eight on average. Tough-skinned and rust-coloured, they measure up to 3cm (1-1/4″) long. The fruit is picked before it can ripen, and dry.
