Hi there

anyone watch Heston Blumenthol on Sunday

he was cooking a spag boll

But to add a moorish meaty taste to the sauce ANY  sauce he said he introduced carelmalised onions but with a twist

he fried off his onions until well brown then broke up one star anise placed it in a muslin bag and placed it amongst the onions and carried on frying them !!


now before you say aniseed isnt the flavour missing what he says is star anise does something spectacular moleculer to onions ...it changes there structure without adding the star anise flavour and changes it to a meaty moorish flavour

make of this what you want
