This star-shaped spice is the dried fruit of a small Asian evergreen tree (a member of the magnolia family). Harvested when it’s still green and unripe, it’s dried in the sun, where it develops its red-brown color and a sweet warm flavor that’s reminiscent of licorice, clove and fennel seed (although it’s botanically unrelated to any of these spices).
