Believe it or not, you’ve probably consumed large amounts of annatto before without even knowing it. Annatto pulp is prized as a natural colorant and is found in lipstick (hence the tree’s nickname “the lipstick tree”) and many foods found in the American supermarket. The seed found within the pulp, however, is somewhat underappreciated. It can be used to impart a slightly sweet, peppery flavor.

Applications: Grind and add to rice, beans, poultry and fish. Annatto seed can also be steeped in hot oil to create annatto oil, frequently found in Caribbean cooking.

How to Store and Share: Store spices in opaque air-tight containers away from moisture. If grinding, do so just prior to use as pre-ground spices lose flavor and aroma over time.

Specifications: These spices ship in quart size plastic containers. Each container has about 24oz of annato seeds.

Shipping Method: UPS Ground
