ACHIOTE OIL
Annatto seeds, known as achiote (ah-chee-OH-tay) in Spanish, are small irregularly shaped, deep reddish colored seeds about the size of a lentil. They grow in pods but are sold loose in jars in the spice aisle. Steeping annatto (achiote) seeds in hot oil for a few minutes will do more than give the oil a brilliant orange-gold color; it will infuse it with a nutty, delicate aroma and add a quick kick to whatever you use it in. In addition to using achiote oil in traditional yellow rice or to sauté onions, garlic and such, you can use it straight, painted onto fish and poultry headed for the grill or broiler. Word of caution - this *can and will* stain whatever it touches!

Steps:
- Heat the oil and annatto seeds in a small skillet over medium heat just until the seeds give off a lively, steady sizzle.
- Don't overheat the mixture or the seeds will turn black and the oil a nasty green.
- Once they're sizzling away, pull the pan from the heat and let stand until the sizzling stops.
- Strain off as much of the oil as you are going to use right away; store the rest for up to 4 days at room temperature in a glass jar with a tight fitting lid.

- Once the oil simmers, bring temperature down to low. Leave uncovered and let steep on low—to infuse and color the oil for about 10 minutes. The longer you let it steep, the deeper the color gets, but 10 minutes should do it. The oil takes on a deep, brownish red hue.
- Store the amber-red oil in a tightly covered glass jar in your refrigerator or in a dark, cool area of your pantry. Achiote oil will last for months, at least four and likely six. Use as your starter oil for rice, stews, roasts—all things savory, hearty, orange-yellow, and authentically Latinx.
