spice
Aniseed
Vilayati Saunf
2.1 g1 teaspoon
6 g1 tablespoon
Measured by weight in grams.
Instead of Aniseed
Fennel seedUse equal weight. Fry or grind as directed; slightly greener and less intensely sweet, but the closest liquorice-adjacent match.
Star aniseUse 50% of the weight. Grind finely or infuse whole in simmering liquid and discard before serving; delivers a stronger, woodier liquorice profile.
