Annatto Seed – Whole is used first for color and second for flavor. The seeds release a natural orange-red tint when infused in oil or fat, with an earthy, slightly peppery taste that stays in the background. That makes them the base of achiote preparations across Mexican, Latin American and Caribbean cooking, and a straightforward way to color sauces and marinades. Whole seeds can be infused as they are or ground in house as each recipe requires.
