This recipe is a waste of time. The oranges were bland and the star anise was overpowering.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The oranges were not as flavorful as I had hoped.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less sugar next time.

I found that the oranges needed to be cooked for a little longer than the recipe stated. Otherwise, they were still a bit too tart.

The oranges were a bit too sour for my taste, but the star anise helped to balance out the flavor.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover oranges. I had some oranges that were starting to go bad, and this recipe was the perfect way to use them up.

This was a fantastic recipe! The oranges were perfectly sweet and tangy, and the star anise added a wonderful depth of flavor. I will definitely be making this again.
