Best Answer

Anise is an herb that tastes like licorice. You can substitute fennel seeds for the same flavor when cooking; some cookbooks also say you can use "anise-like" herbs such as dill, basil, tarragon, marjoram or angelica.

Besides anise (whole seeds or ground into power), you can use fennel seeds for that "licorice" flavor.
