Five Spice Powder

back to Glossary Index
A blend of five different spices that are commonly used as a seasoning in Asian food preparation, most specifically Chinese and Vietnamese foods. Five Spice Powder is often used in making marinades for grilled foods or as a seasoning for roasted and braised meats. The Powder is made with equal parts of ground cloves, star anise, fennel seeds, cinnamon, and Szechuan peppercorns. This seasoning, which is also known as Chinese Five-Spice Powder, or Five Spice Seasoning, is available in Asian markets and well-stocked supermarkets.

Five Minute Chickpea Salad

This colorful and nuitritious salad can be ready in a flash if you use left-over rice. If you need to prepare the rice, it will take about 20 minutes longer. Use as a side salad for four or as a main dish for two. Chickpeas, also called garbonzo beans, are a good protein source, but you can increase the protein level by adding cooked meat, diced or crumbled cheese or nuts such as walnuts, almonds or peanuts. Be creative! Exact proportions aren't critical.
