Frequently Asked Questions
Are these seeds sweet or bitter?
Fennel seeds have a primarily sweet, anise-like flavor. While they have a very slight earthy bitterness, they are much sweeter than cumin or caraway seeds.
Do I need to grind them?
They can be used whole in breads and pickles, or ground fresh for spice rubs and sauces to release the most intense flavor.
Is there a difference between Fennel and Anise seeds?
Yes. While they share a similar licorice flavor, fennel seeds are larger and slightly more "herbal," whereas anise seeds are smaller and more intensely sweet.
What is the shelf life?
Whole spices maintain their quality much longer than ground versions. When stored in a cool, dry place, these seeds will stay aromatic for 12 to 18 months.
