Regal 5 lb. Annatto Seed - 4 Bulk Containers per Case with Caribbean Flavor

Regal annatto seed comes in a case of four 5 lb. bulk containers, featuring a brick-red color and larger triangular shape. Though red in appearance, it imparts a rich yellow-orange color to foods. Commonly used in Caribbean, Latin American, and Filipino cuisines, annatto seed serves as both a spice and natural coloring agent in butter, rice, smoked fish, and cheeses. It has a slightly bitter, earthy, peppery flavor with a hint of minty scent. The seeds should be ground or cooked before consumption and can be steeped in warm oil or water or sautéed in hot oil to release color. This dried seed spice is vegan and vegetarian friendly and has a Caribbean Latin flavor profile. The total case size is 20 lb., with a shipping weight of 22.8 lb.
