Lotus Five Spice Powder – 200g

Lotus Five Spice Powder – 200g is a traditional Chinese seasoning blend typically made from a balanced combination of star anise, cinnamon, fennel seed, cloves, and Sichuan-style pepper elements. The flavour profile is complex and warming, combining sweet aromatic spice from cinnamon and star anise with a gentle earthy heat and slight numbing spice note. It creates a deep, rounded seasoning base that enhances both savoury and slightly sweet dishes.

The texture is a fine, free-flowing powder that blends easily into marinades, sauces, and dry rubs. When heated, it releases a strong, fragrant aroma that builds quickly and infuses deeply into food. It is commonly used early in cooking to allow the spice blend to fully develop and integrate into the dish, especially in slow-cooked or braised recipes.

Lotus Five Spice Powder – 200g fits naturally into everyday cooking. It enhances roast duck or chicken with rich aromatic depth, works well in stir-fries where it adds warm spice complexity, and is ideal for braised meats where slow cooking allows the flavours to fully infuse. It can also be used in marinades to create bold, flavourful coatings before cooking.
