Oh, I love Five spice Chinese , always have it in my pantry.It's better make at home than store bought, thanks for the way to do it!:))
Do you know we have Indian Five spice too? It's called "Panch Phodan", a Bengali mix of five spices to season the dishes.
It contains equal amount of Onion seeds, Mustard,Fennel seeds,Fenugreek seeds, and Cumin seeds.You add just a tsp of this mix to hot oil until they splutter and add to cooked dish! Fun, huh?:D

Thanks so much for clarifying that five-spice has five tastes rather than literally five spices. I am learning so much from you, Zlamushka! Have not tried Chinese five-spice powder yet, but I am going to look for it.
