Anise Seed: How to Store Anise Seed

http://www.aniseseed.net/

If you are new to buying anise seed in bulk, you may wonder how to store it. You likely bought it in a plastic bag which is great for shipping or for bringing home from the store. For longer-term storage, use a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid. Keep the jar in a cool place. You may consider keeping a small jar of anise seed in your kitchen and refilling it from your pantry jar as you need more anise seed.
