Bon Appetit January 1999 Flavors Of The World : Star anise has been showing up all over restaurant menus lately, even in seafood dishes. This light and lively first course was inspired by such recipes. REVIEW: Heater (jgue@telusplanet.net) from Lloydminster, AB Canada on in a long time. Even more importantly, the recipe is true to its times and method of preparation. The Star Anise is a wonderful change.
