I created Neptune powder by combining all the anise tastes of the world with seaweeds from here, and the Mermaid oil (huile des sirènes) is made with the same spices and seaweeds.

You need only walk along the Customs Trail from Château Richeux to Saint Malo to understand why anise tastes and those of the sea make such a natural match. This trail at the top of the cliffs is lined with wild fennel, that beautiful umbelliferous whose first shoots announce the arrival of spring and whose crown-shaped flowers can be eaten like anise sweets in the autumn.
Conservation
In a dry, dark place such as a closed cupboard, ideally at 18 C.
Use
Sprinkle it on fish and shellfish or flavour a sauce such as a classic beurre blanc with a few pinches of Neptune powder per person. If you like peanuts, you can coat them with this powder to add crunch to a fish fillet browned a la plancha.
