   @eider Thanks! here is the recipe: https://www.hogarmania.com/cocina/recetas/postres/torta-blas-331.html
   
   I'm not sure I can find the extract for sale here, I thought they meant anise seeds, these are easy enough to get. Though, important question: is it "small seeds" anise, or star anise?

     @piggo That recipe is from a famous cook. She uses anís but that's an alcoholic drink made with the "small seeds" anise.
     @eider uses essence instead. The essence only needs some drops to work, and it's not alcoholic.

     @piggo @eider This is the drink: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Licor_de_an%C3%ADs

     Licor de anís.

     Also very famous the brand "Anís del mono" which has a demonic monkey in the label that holds a bottle of "Anís del mono" so it's also recursive.

     @ekaitz_zarraga @eider so, do you think grinding a bunch of the seeds could give it good enough flavor?

     @ekaitz_zarraga @eider i'll try it, worst that can happen, they won't be anise enough. This ouzo is no extract, but it's pretty strong, i usually dilute it with water (also for the milky effect)

     @piggo @eider wikipedia says ouzo is the name of the anis in greece so it's probably similar.
