2. Fennel. Fennel seeds are a key ingredient in many dishes around the world, and ls extremely easy to grow!

3. Paprika. Paprika is bland on its own, but pair it meat or tomatoes, and it explodes in flavor! It also adds beautiful colors to sauces.

4. Star anise. Star anise is a sweet, warm, and spicy tasting spice. It is used to flavor braised dishes, stews, soups, and is an ingrediant in multiple baked goods.
