- Make-Ahead
- Make-Ahead
- You can make the Five Spice Powder ahead of time, as it stores well for several months if kept in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. This can be especially helpful if you use the spice blend frequently or want to have it on hand for quick and easy meals. You can also prepare the individual spices ahead of time by toasting and grinding them, then storing them separately until you're ready to make the Five Spice Powder. This can be helpful if you have a large quantity of a particular spice on hand or prefer pre-ground spices.
