Achiote Paste 100g – Traditional Yucatan-Style Seasoning for Marinades, Tacos al Pastor, and Cochinita Pibil – Ground Annatto and Spices (3 x 100g)

£6.99

The Achiote Paste is a traditional Yucatan-style seasoning, rich in flavor and versatility, perfect for marinades, tacos al pastor, and Cochinita Pibil dishes. This 100g pack includes 3 individual 100g containers, offering convenience and a save-on-costs advantage. The ground annatto seeds, which impart a vibrant orange color, are the main ingredient. These seeds, when ground, release their flavor, creating a spicy-sweet sauce that complements meats and adds depth to other sauces.

Annatto, a traditional spice used in Latin American cuisine, adds a unique, complex flavor to the paste. It has anti-inflammatory properties and is considered a superfood for its antioxidant content. The addition of other spices like allspice, ají amarillo, garlic, and onion gives the Achiote Paste a robust, well-balanced flavor profile. This product is not only delicious but also supports local farmers and is sustainably sourced. It's a must-have for any kitchen looking to expand its culinary horizons with authentic, flavor-packed meals.
