my anise cookies today.
Anise was one of the first
spices to be used in Alsace.
Green anise (not to be
confused with star anise, a
different plant altogether)
originated in Asia and
adapted well to the
European climate. It has
been used medicinally as a
muscle relaxant since
antiquity. Some say that it
has aphrodisiac properties,
