How To Make five spice homemade powder (sallye)

• Step 1
  Preheat heavy dry skillet (I use cast iron) to medium heat. Add peppercorns and shake around or stir with wooden spoon about 2 minutes until aroma is released. Remove peppercorns into a small bowl.
• Step 2
  In same skillet add star anise and fennel seed. Shake around or stir with wooden spoon for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat
• Step 3
  Place all inredients into spice grinder or blender and grind until a fine powder is formed. Let rest for a minute or two for powder to settle. Pour into airtight container and store in cool dry place. Will keep for several months.
• Step 4
  NOTE: IF YOU DON'T HAVE A SPICE GRINDER, I SUGGEST YOU BUY THE STAR ANISE ALREADY GROUND. IT IS VERY HARD TO GRIND IN A BLENDER. Use 1 tablespoon of ground anise as alternate
