Whole Vietnamese Star Anise Pods

Prized for cooking and commonly used in Asia for centuries, star anise is most famous as an ingredient in the Chinese five-spice mix. Aptly referred to as Star Anise due to its appearance and flavor, this prized spice is the seed pod from the fruit of Illicium Verum, a type of evergreen shrub. The seed pods grow in the shape of an eight-point star and host similar flavor properties of anise. Whole star anise pods are not the same as anise, but because the flavor is so similar (due to the shared flavoring compound, anethole), the two are often used interchangeably in dishes. 

The spice has commonly been used for both medicinal and culinary purposes. It is often present in braises, soups, stews, pickling, candying, and much more.  In European kitchens and recipes, star anise is used for a plethora of baking and flavor applications: duck, tea, honey hams—you name it, star anise plays a co-starring role.

These wonderful little ninja stars of the spice world, are an amazing example of a tiny product that packs a punch and a kick. Whole star anise pods are often described as having a flavor and aroma profile of black licorice; however, they are also sweet and spicy and should be used in complimentary moderation so as not to overpower a dish or recipe.

Why buy star anise from Slofoodgroup?

Each one of our Vietnamese star anise pods is handpicked and carefully sorted. Only whole, unbroken pods are used. These pods are solely picked during the second harvest of the season—the autumn harvest—because they have an inherently higher oil content. This makes the Autumn season more desirable for consumers and fetches a high premium for farmers and growers.  

How do you use the star anise you have purchased?

Star anise comes ready to use in whole star anise pod. You simply drop the little pods in your liquid, braising stock, cream, or whatever culinary medium you desire and let the flavor infuse into the dish. We recommend using cheesecloth and making a herb sachet so the pods are easy to remove and do not get lost or forgotten at the end of the cooking process. If you are making a spice mix and need ground star anise, pop a couple of anise pods in your coffee or spice grinder and give it a whirl (just make sure you clean out the coffee grounds first). Whole star anise pods grind up great in a grinder, are more flavorful when ground fresh, and have a much longer shelf life than pre-ground mixes.  

Star anise and Saigon cinnamon are also two very important ingredients in the now-popular Vietnamese dish of Pho. This dish itself, over the past several years, has become synonymous with Vietnamese culinary identity. 

*As is true for our entire line of high-quality spices, our star anise pods have been certified kosher.

A MUST HAVE BOOK FOR THE 1st YEAR PHARMACOLOGY STUDENT !
Format: Kindle
Been working at CVS Pharmacy for 3 months now. I am looking to take the PTCE Exam in 5 months. I downloaded the Top 200 drugs from the net and start memorizing it. After 20 words....the material was getting harder to absorb. Yes, I was relying on pure memorization. According to Dr Guerra, this ain't the correct approach.Then I came upon this book from Tony Guerra. Dr Guerra is right in that to memorize these 200 drug names, the data must be meaningful. The book has help tremendously. It approaches the study from a Physiology and Class point of view. I don't now how others are benefiting from this book. I bought both the audio and the ebook on kindle. This way, I can pronounce the drug names and know how to spell both the generic and brand name. The real question is why this book and not some other Top 200 drugs from the other authors. I have seen the other books at Barnes and Noble. The other authors throw everything at you. It assume you already know some pharmacology before starting learning pharmacology. This book is indeed a relaxed approach. This book is the front door to learning the Top 200 Drugs and it is written in a layman's language in such a way that everyone can comprehend it. I highly recommend this book. A MUST HAVE BOOK FOR THE 1st YEAR PHARMACOLOGY STUDENT!!!!! P.S. Just finished Chapter 1 and 2. Entering Chapter 3. The retention is going according to plan. Alex Ung

You will ace your pharmacology courses!! -- A MUST HAVE
Format: Paperback
I only watched one YouTube video of Dr. Guerra's and immediately purchased the book right after. As a pharmacy student I am always coming up with mnemonics to help me understand material quickly. I do this so when I look at any word I can quickly access loads of information about it just merely looking at the word itself. However, I don't have time for that due to heavy course load of pharmacology, therapeutics, and medchem. Luckily, Dr. Guerra and his students did the work for me! It truly helped me not just memorize but understand the drugs and make the connections quickly. It really is learning a new language but it's put in much simpler terms that a high schooler can understand. Watch his videos on YouTube to see for yourself or a snippet of the book on Google. This book is so cheap compared to the $200+ undergrad books you had to buy to get to where you are right now. I mean come on, I've spent more money on fastfood than this book. If you are struggling in pharmacology, this book is your lifesaver.

Nursing Student Must Have
Format: Audiobook
I feel that this book helped to break down all the different types of drugs in an easy-to-read fashion. As a nursing student, it is largely beneficial to be able to know the "drug group" from the drug name, because you are then able to make connections to what it does. I enjoyed reading this book and that it is full of tips to help memorize generic and trade names!

I bought this book. This review is based on one full day of analyzing the material presented. I highly recommend this book to anyone wanting a tool to recall drugs by classification, name, and mnemonics. I outlined the author's note and feel these are full-circle critical points that he makes: The book assembles an easy to understand basis of drugs to be utilized for class, exams, and medical practice to the student that wants to be remarkable. Also, transforming the language of pharmacology into plain understood English is a realistic goal that this book is helping me with. The author's analogies and mnemonics shared greatly enhance the learning experience. I also highly appreciated the content in the author's note about taking the memorization a step further to comprehension to describe a drug treatment regimen. I have implemented the strategies within and have found positive results so far! Thank you for such a wonderful book!

Started off great, but kind of went left.
Format: Kindle
I liked the first few chapters. The introduction of the book have an INCREDIBLE acronym to remember the drug classes. I liked him pointing out stems because they are very helpful, BUT some of the hints and connections could've been better. Also, the book doesn't help memorize the brand/generic name. It only helps remember what drugs go into which drug classes which could be done simply just from knowing your stems. So you're right back at square one trying to remember the brsnd/generic name like you were in the first place.
