Salsis, however, has had more traumatic experiences with star anise, as she pointed out when the star theme was first revealed and now submits this poem:
The taste and odor of star anise forever changed by a bad batch of apples
Star anise you make me puke,
The smell of you and taste.
Batch of apple crisp gone wrong.
You're a star, SalSis. Thank you. And may all your apple crisps be star anise-free this season.

Wow, forgot I already mentioned it. Bad, bad apples.
Ack - it's haunting me. I thought I bought anise extract. Today I looked closer - it's star anise extract! Good news is the bakery supply store that replaced the Bay Leaf sells anise oil - couldn't find it anywhere in town.
What do you need anise oil for?
