This is Frontier's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Some Frontier packs are double wall wax-lined paper. Chinese 5 spice is a blend of dry spices that originated in China. It containsthe following spices, Cinnamon, fennel, cloves, star anise and white pepper. It is often used in the classic dish Peking Duck as a marinade. Chinese 5 spice is very pungent and has a strong flavor, so use it sparingly. It can also be added to sauces or sprinkled over deep fried wantons. http://www.pepperfool.com/recipes/appetizers/chinese_5spicewings.html: Chinese 5-spice Chicken Wings 3 pounds chicken wings (12 to 14) 1 onion a 1 1/2-inch piece peeled fresh gingerroot 2 tablespoons soy sauce (preferably Kikkoman) 1 tablespoon medium-dry Sherry 1 tablespoon Chinese five-spice powder 1/2 teaspoon Cayenne or Thai Chile powder 1 tablespoon sugar 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon coarse salt 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, or to taste 1/2 cup cornstarch 6 cups vegetable oil Cut off wing tips, reserving for another use, and halve wings at joint. Coarsely chop onion and finely chop gingerroot. In a large sealable plastic bag combine onion, gingerroot, soy sauce, Sherry, five-spice powder, sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt. Add wings and seal bag, pressing out excess air. Turn bag until wings are completely coated. Marinate chicken wings in bag in a large bowl, chilled, turning bag once, 2 hours. Preheat oven to 350°F. Transfer wings and marinade to a roasting pan or large shallow baking pan and bake, covered with foil, in middle of oven 1 hour. Cool wings until they can be handled and drain in a colander, discarding marinade. Wings may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Reduce temperature to 250°F. In a small serving bowl combine remaining 2 tablespoons salt and pepper. Put cornstarch in a small bowl and dredge each wing, knocking off excess cornstarch and transferring to a shallow pan. In a 5- to 6-quart heavy kettle heat oil until a deep-fat thermometer registers 370°F. Working in batches of 6 or 7, fry wings in oil until golden brown, about 3 minutes, and with a slotted spoon transfer to paper towels to drain. Keep wings warm on a baking sheet in oven. Fry remaining wings in same manner, returning oil to 370°F. between batches. Serve wings with salt and pepper mixture. Serves 6 as an hors d'oeuvre or 4 as a main course. The two-pronged cooking method used for these wings incorporating both braising and deep-frying is a takeoff on the Chinese technique of steaming, then frying. We think it keeps the meat unbelievably tender while getting the skin supercrispy. Be sure to allow at least 2 hours for the wings to marinate. http://www.mexican.recipes-to-go.com/5_Spice_Tamales.html: 5 Spice Tamales Mexican Recipes need not be unhealthy, and can be included in a healthy diet.
