Whole dried star anise.
This small star-shaped pod is from an evergreen tree of the magnolia family from China. The flavour is reminiscent of liquorice and is used as an ingredient of Chinese 5-spice. It is commonly used in biryani and masala chai all over the Indian subcontinent. It is widely used in Chinese cuisine and in Malay and Indonesian cuisines.
