Description

Terre Exotique’s five spice blend is a key ingredient in Chinese cooking for making char siu pork and Cantonese duck. This fragrant, sweet and spicy mix combines anise with fennel, coriander, cinnamon and cloves. While the spices always stay the same in China, the proportions vary depending on each village - no two blends are ever the same!

As well as being used to make char siu pork and crispy Cantonese duck, this five spice blend is wonderful as a dry rub for chicken and white fish before grilling, or add to soy sauce for a simple marinade. You can also use this to your giant spring rolls recipe.

About Terre Exotique

Terre Exotique works directly with hundreds of specialist farmers and producers around the world – to bring the very best peppers, spices and salts to our tables. The company was founded by Erwann de Kerros, a Breton and seasoned traveller. After tasting pepper in the Penja plantation in Cameroon, Kerros yearned to try other specialist peppers and spices – and Terre Exotique was born.

The company works closely with farmers to preserve natural habitats, and to ensure a sustainable income for local communities. Each spice is carefully packed in tins or glass jars – with no plastic. The metal tins preserve the flavours and aroma of your spice, by protecting them from sunlight. So the ingredients stay at their best for longer.

Ingredients: Anise, fennel, coriander, cinnamon, cloves.

Storage: Keep at room temperature in a dry place.
