In Florida I have no problem finding Chinese five spice powder. But when we are in Indiana at our farm, I couldn't find it anywhere. I could have ordered it from Amazon but I had most of the ingredients so I made my own. I love this in Ramen. I hope you enjoy 😉

Allison

• 6 whole star anise pods

• 1 1/2 teaspoon whole cloves (or 1 1/4 teaspoon ground)

• 1 cinnamon stick (3 inches long ) or two tablespoons ground

• 2 tablespoons fennel seeds

• 2 teaspoons Szechuan peppercorns ( or sub 3 teaspoons regular peppercorns)

Toast any dry whole spices in a dry skillet, until fragrant, 2-3 minutes.

Place all ingredients in a spice grinder (or coffee grinder) and grind until smooth.

Your house will smell amazing.

Store in a sealed, airtight spice jar -and for best flavor use within 6 months.

Makes ¼ cup.
