Directions:
Use only Annatto Seeds that have a bright-reddish in color. Seeds that are a brownish color are old and have probably lost much of their flavor.
1. On medium-low heat, in a heavy saucepan, combine the Annatto Seeds and Olive oil.
2. Allow to steep for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Bring mixture to a low and gentle boil while stirring continuously.
4. Remove saucepan from the heat and allow to cool thoroughly.
5. Strain through a very fine sieve and pour the strained oil into a bottle and cap tightly.
6. This oil will keep for up to 6 months if it is refrigerated and capped tightly.
7. Be sure to label and date your bottle.
