How to Make Homemade Chinese Five Spice As A Rub
- In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients: star anise, cloves, Sichuan peppercorns, cinnamon, and fennel seeds.
- Using a mortar and pestle, grind the spice mixture until it reaches your desired consistency. For a finer rub, grind until powdery. For a more textured rub, leave some larger pieces.
- Store the homemade Five Spice rub in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. This will keep for several months.
- Use the rub generously on your favorite proteins (chicken, pork, beef) or vegetables before roasting, grilling, stir-frying, or even adding to marinades. Experiment and enjoy the incredible depth of flavor!
- Tip: For an extra layer of flavor, toast the spices lightly in a dry pan before grinding.
