Annatto Oil image

The ochre hue characteristic of so many dishes of the Caribbean and Latin America comes from annatto. Annatto seeds, also known as achiote, deliver a mildly pungent flavor, but not a spicy one. Use this infused oil when cooking rice, or brush it on chicken or fish before you put them on the grill.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my annatto oil didn't turn out as red as I expected.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my annatto oil turned out really bitter. I think I might have overcooked the annatto seeds.
