Annatto Seed Powder: Overview
Annatto seed powder is derived from the seeds of the annatto tree (Bixa orellana), native to tropical regions of Central and South America. It's known for its vibrant red-orange color and is commonly used as a natural food coloring and flavoring agent. Annatto seed powder contains pigments called bixin and norbixin, which are responsible for its intense hue. It's used in a variety of culinary applications to add color to dishes such as rice, soups, sauces, cheeses, and desserts. Additionally, annatto seed powder is sometimes used as a spice, imparting a mild, peppery flavor to foods. It's valued for its natural origin and ability to add visual appeal to dishes without artificial additives.
