Five Spice

This complex, aromatic blend hits all the fundamental flavor notes—sweet, sour, bitter, savory, and salty—in one powerful punch. The intense heat of the air fryer beautifully blooms the star anise and cinnamon, creating a sticky, fragrant crust. It completely transforms pork belly bites, duck breast, and even crispy sweet potato fries.

Rub this potent blend sparingly onto meats and let sit for 15 minutes before air frying to allow the flavors to penetrate. It creates an incredibly aromatic, caramelized crust on fatty cuts like pork belly or duck when air-fried.
