Harvested from a plant in the parsley family that's native to the Mediterranean, McCormick Gourmet Organic Anise Seed is organic and non GMO. Anise seed has been prized since ancient times for its sweet, licorice flavor and aroma. The Romans enjoyed anise cakes after their meals. In addition to desserts, anise seed is also popular in confections, breads, pickling brines and fruit dishes. Its fennel-like flavor livens up savory foods like tomato sauce, sausage, soups, stews and seasoning rubs for pork roasts. It flavors many after-dinner alcoholic beverages, including Greek ouzo and Italian sambuca. This McCormick Gourmet Organic Anise Seed is in a bottle that is 1.37 ounces. Store this shelf-stable item at an ambient temperature. Review: Perfect for Making Italian S Cookies! - This anise seed is excellent quality and has a strong, fresh aroma right out of the bottle. The flavor is clean and pleasantly licorice-like without being overpowering, which is exactly what you want when baking. I used it to make S cookies, and it worked perfectly. The seeds added just the right amount of classic anise flavor and held up well during baking without turning bitter. You can really tell it’s fresh, which makes a big difference in traditional recipes where anise is the star. The organic quality is a nice bonus, and the packaging keeps the seeds fresh between uses. If you bake Italian or holiday cookies—or use anise in breads or teas—this is a great pantry staple to have on hand. Review: McCormick is the best - Great seasoning McCormick makes the best. We’ll buy more later. Thanks. ## Features - McCormick Gourmet Anise Seed has sweet, licorice flavor and aroma - Anise seeds are certified organic and non GMO - For cookies like Italian biscotti and German pfeffernusse - Popular in confections, breads, pickling brines and fruit dishes - Adds fennel-like flavor to tomato sauce, sausage, soups, stews & pork rubs ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01F5IB4TC | | ASIN | B01F5IB4TC | | Best Sellers Rank | #88,520 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #27 in Anise Seeds | | Brand Name | McCormick Gourmet | | Coin Variety 1 | Anise,Parsley | | Container Type | Bottle | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (1,743) | | Diet Type | Kosher | | Flavor | Anise | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00052100035345 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Form | seeds | | Item Package Weight | 0.16 Kilograms | | Item Weight | 0.34 Pounds | | Item model number | ZY-EJ-DDLL-2-171 | | Manufacturer | McCormick & Company, Inc. | | Manufacturer | McCormick & Company, Inc. | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Produce Sold As Format | Pre-packaged | | Product Dimensions | 1.67 x 1.67 x 4.56 inches; 5.49 ounces | | Size | 1.37 Ounce (Pack of 1) | | Specialty | GMO Free, Kosher, Organic, Vegan, high-fructose-corn-syrup-free, low-carb, vegetarian | | UPC | 052100035345 | | UPC | 052100035345 | | Unit Count | 1.37 Ounce | | Units | 1.37 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** McCormick Gourmet - **Item Form:** seeds - **Specialty:** GMO Free, Kosher, Organic, Vegan, high-fructose-corn-syrup-free, low-carb, vegetarian - **Unit Count:** 1.37 Ounce - **Variety:** Anise,Parsley ## Images ![McCormick Gourmet Organic Anise Seed, 1.37 oz - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81VIUEZ75PL.jpg) ![McCormick Gourmet Organic Anise Seed, 1.37 oz - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/811szQDpcVL.jpg) ![McCormick Gourmet Organic Anise Seed, 1.37 oz - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71zEraAU4UL.jpg) ![McCormick Gourmet Organic Anise Seed, 1.37 oz - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/711H1AGljsL.jpg) ![McCormick Gourmet Organic Anise Seed, 1.37 oz - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/714xJgrS0IL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Did anyone make a tea using this product?
