Servings: 2
Ingredients:
2 tablespoon(s) annatto seeds
1/2 cup(s) water
3 clove(s) garlic peeled and thinly sliced
1/2 medium white onion thinly sliced
1 teaspoon(s) ground allspice
2 teaspoon(s) ground black pepper
1/2 cup(s) ancho chile powder
4 teaspoon(s) kosher salt
1 tablespoon(s) dried oregano
1/4 cup(s) cider vingar
1 1/2 cup(s) fresh orange juice
1/4 cup(s) fresh lemon juice
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, bring the annatto seeds and water to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steep for 2 hours, or until softened. (Annatto seeds are a strong coloring agent, so keep spills to a minimum.)
2. In a small pan over medium heat, heat the oil. Add the garlic and onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
3. Drain the annatto seeds, discarding the soaking liquid. Place them in a blender or food processor along with the garlic and onion mixture and remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. May cover and refrigerate for up to 5 days.
