Description
Annatto seeds are used primarily as a natural food coloring and flavoring agent. They are derived from the seeds of the achiote tree (Bixa orellana), which is native to tropical regions in Central and South America. Annatto seeds are known for their vibrant red-orange color, and they have been used for centuries by various cultures for culinary and non-culinary purposes such as food coloring, seasoning, traditional dishes, food preservation, and cosmetic and textile dyes.
