Chinese Five Spice
An authentic Chinese spice blend that is believed to be the 1st BBQ rub. Traditionally used to season Peking duck, Chinese five spice combines heating and cooling elements to reflect the yin and yang Chinese philosophy through five different flavors: sweet, sour, bitter, salty and savory. Chinese five spice pairs well with fatty cuts of meat like duck and pork, as well as vegetarian fare like hot-fried tofu. It can also be your secret ingredient in baked goods like muffins, breads, spice cakes, and cookies.
