## Description

El Yucateco Achiote Paste 3.5 OZ (Pack of 3).

Review: The flavor is absolutely incredible — earthy, slightly peppery, with a hint of citrus. It adds so much depth and color to my dishes, especially grilled chicken, pork, and rice. Every time I use it, the food turns out vibrant and full of authentic Latin flavor. I love how easy it is to use too — just mix a little with lime juice, garlic, and oil for the perfect marinade. It transforms even simple meals into something special. The beautiful red hue it gives to food makes everything look as good as it tastes! If you enjoy experimenting with bold, traditional flavors, achiote paste is a must-have in your kitchen. It’s become one of my go-to ingredients for adding warmth, color, and that extra touch of authenticity to my cooking.
Review: This is not spicy, you use to marinate chicken and pork before cooking...try mixing chopped garlic and onions and add a little water and rub it all over a whole chicken.....then cover and leave in the fridge and next day pop into the oven......I really like this item and I reorder....

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this the same thing as “ Tex Mex Paste” ?**
A: I'm not sure what "TexMex" paste is.  Achitote paste is made from the annatto seed and I use it to flavor and color food.  I use it in dishes like taco birria, al pastor, etc.  The flavor is very, very mild however the color it adds is magnifico!

**Q: Is this supposed to be dry powder? Mine was like play dough.**
A: It is described as a "paste", not a powder. Use a knife to break up the paste in smaller pieces. I discovered that it works best when you use a marinade that has a high "acidity" content like Italian dressing or orange juice. Liquids with high acidity content will help break down the pieces of paste. Don't be afraid to get your hands messy as you massage the chicken, ribs, shoulders, etc. with the marinade before cooking on the grill or smoker.

**Q: Do you refrigerate?**
A: We do not refrigerate it.

**Q: Gluten free?**
A: Google says yes. But you might want a second opinion.

Every time I make tacos, I use this paste as a flavorful seasoning addition to marinated pork. The paste gives food a distinctive red-orange color and a mild, slightly sweet, and smoky flavor.
