Instructions

  1. Stir together all the spices in the bottom of a heat proof jar or bowl. It should be large enough to hold the spices and the 2 cups of oil.
  2. Heat the oil and ginger in a saucepan over medium to medium high heat until it registers 270F with an instant read thermometor.
  3. Remove the ginger and carefully pour the oil (it will sizzle!) into the jar. Stir the contents well.
  4. Let cool for an hour, then remove the cinnamon stick, bay leaves, and star anise. Cap and refrigerate until needed.
