Star anise or Illicium verum is a popular spice that is mainly produced in India, China and the Philipines. It is has a similar flavor to regular anise and one may be substituted for the other in cooking. Star anise is used throughout the globe and features heavily in Indian dishes like garam masala and Chinese five-spice powder. However, there are many health benefits in star anise and its star-shaped seedpods (pericarps). The pods are responsible for the unique flavor of star anise and contain the chemical compound shikimic acid. Shikimic acid is used to make Tamiflu (oseltamivir), which is an important drug prescribed to treat influenza, bird flu and swine flu.
