This is a much safer way to add color to your foods. Thank you for supporting us once again. To place order for Pasteles or Sofrito, Mugs, Tshirts log on to our website.

I still remember when my grandfather had annatto plants behind the house. I used to watch my grandmother make the annato oil to make yellow rice, either with beans, gandules, chicken, etc. She cooked amazing! You do the achiote just like her. Yes!!! Keep up the good work.
Muy bien gracias ☺️
I'm making annatto oil right now for under and on top of my pizza dough so it puffs up with some color. I like it with rice, coconut oil, olive oil, and broth too.
this is how what my mom used to cook all her foods back in the 70s in Brooklyn way before sazon in powder and oil she always used lard instead though not healthy it always made her food taste so good
Mine too. Good times. Those aromas would be waiting for you to enter. Thanks for sharing Rebecca.
East New York, Brooklyn🙂
@@nancyM1313 thank you god bless you and be safe
wow, I just love the way you teach, step by step and great patience! Thank you so much, I usually get the jar with the achiote already made but now, thanks to you, I now can make my own. I love you so much for this. God bless you. 😙👍❤
That’s How My Abuela Used To Make it ..Thank You For Sharing ..Love Your Smile ..DTB.
I'm making this right now for my alcappurias wepa!!
Thank you so much for the recipe of this my mother passed away a long time ago and she never got to show me how to make this red oil but I always love the flavor of it in my mother's rice and the beautiful color that I gave the rice. Thank you again
I am so glad I can help keep our traditions alive. Thank you for your sweet words.💗
Mi abuelita always used achiote. Her food was the best! Que dias aquellos! :(
I love all your videos & thanks so much for showing me how to make achiote. You have a great personality & always a big smile. Keep up the good work. By the way you are very clean and your kitchen stove is spotless.
I love the idea of making it a head of time. I made some and have it in a mason jar.
Thank you so much for this recipe. My abuelita would always have achiote on the counter in the kitchen. Unfortunately, my mom (her daughter) didn’t have time to make this so I no longer ate it. Fast forward to me. You have made my smile a lot wider with this tutorial ! Finding the seeds will be a challenge as there is very limited Puerto Rican products available in western NC where we’ve moved to but originally from Philly suburbs. Thank you also for so many recipes that brought back so many memories. Extra happy you’ll ship pasteles all over the country. I’ll be placing an order real soon ! Thank you so much & keep sharing with us please !
You can buy it from Penzeys Spices. No prob.
Also they will be in a good Asian supermarket x
Thanks for taking the mystery out of making this recipe!
My pleasure 😊
thanks for the recipe, i always wanne to know how to make it and is so easy and thank you for that beautiful smile. Saludos.
I just discovered your youtube channel and I'm so glad I did!! There are so many recipes that I am going to make. Just watching makes me so hungry!! Looking forward to more of your vidoes!!
wow great recipe give or take a few seeds, saves a lot of money and time. I thought the seeds came from a flower but I found out Annatto is the seed or extract from the achiote tree, which is indigenous to Latin and South America. Annatto is used heavily in
Central and South America as a dye, medicine, and as an ingredient in many foods. In 1800s they colored cheese with annatto, who knew.I plan to put this on BBQ and roasted corn on the cob on the grill:)
gypsygirl731 wowww very interesting didn't know this thanks.
Thanks! I am making pasteles for the first time
Exactly how my abuelita makes it !
Thank your for sharing your knowledge through this video and you provide a great explanation. I noticed you used canola oil and several people made comments. People... use whatever oil YOU use. The result is basically the same. Use an oil that has a HIGH smoke point. You are basically boiling the oil. Keep an eye on it and dont walk away!!
Peanut, canola, avacado and sunflower are a few oils that have a high smoke point, which makes them the best oils for cooking. If you are not sure google it. Buy whatever oil is available in your region.
I make and use this seasoned oil for my rice and to season my pork and chicken. Best of luck to all. Be respectful with your comments.
Thanks so much for this recipe- Coming across PR food in AZ is almost impossible, so I am going to attempt to make the pasteles.
Originally from Brooklyn New York, now residing in Arizona.
Feliz Navidad & Prospero Año Nuevo!
Love all his recipes
Thanks. First time using this. I usually use sazón but I ran out. I’m glad my sister gave me this it came in handy.. I don’t have time to go out. Have a nice Monday.🫂☀️🙏
Hey man, thank you for putting this stuff out there. I’ve made a few of your recipes now and they all remind me of my childhood and tonight I made this oil and it has my kitchen smelling like heaven 🙏🏽
I'm glad. Thank you!
Awesome ty for sharing
I make this oil all the time but I use a good cooking extra virgin olive oil. I bottle it back in the olive oil glass and refrigerate. It so good in rice and I braise my guisado meat in this oil before adding my liquid. Adds a nutty peppery and earthy taste.
Pretty much the technique for making any sort of infused oil. Bravo!
Yes, exactly 😁
Nice! Thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing your videos!!! 🌈🇵🇱👩🍳🇺🇸
I love the Freakin Rican channel! Thank you!!!

Everything looks yummy
TF.R,R....I'm A New B To Ur Channel N I'm Learning Alot Frm U,,Thank U For Ur Precise Tutorials Ur Patience N Ur Time N Also Tell Ur Camera Person Good Job!!!!!For Always Being On Point N Following Ur Instructions👍.
Before I saw your video I kind of intuitively guessed close to those temperature recommendations, and the 15 minute time frame. It really brought a wonderful color to some oatmeal with quinoa that I made. Some chefs say the achiote a.k.a. annato seeds are a good alternative to the similar colors you get from the more expensive saffron spice if you're on a budget. Thanks for posting.
I 💘 👀 you cook,thank you for the tips.
You should make a video using the oil for foods we make with sazon so everyone can see and have an idea.
Catherine McKee what can this oil be used for?
@@bonitarose019 The oil is used for coloring your meats and rice.
@@IncubusOfDeath thank you.
@@bonitarose019 You're welcome.
Gracias amigo
I love when you smile to the camera so freakin cute.
Just like my Mommy taught me!!!!!
Sunflower oil is probably a better oil for health over canola.
I subscribe on your pasteles channel, like your site thanks for sharing👍🎅🎄

Thank you 🇵🇷❣
I remember people putting the seeds in water and leaving it under a blazing sun. Anyone here from PR that had that experience? To think that this was the alternative when olive oil was not available
Great!
Thank you! :)
Annato is just the Italian name for the natural of central america and the Caribbean Achiote seeds or Achiote plant. Italians put their own name to many things from other countries.
Love it
Thanks a bunch😋
Coconut oil, Olive oil, Palm oil red is the healthy oil anything else are not. Thanks for the recipes.
thank you. I will pass down to our children
I saw the Goya brand version
At C town
Que bueno 👍
How long does it stay good for?
Does this have a taste or just color?
Great👌🏽
Great Video Daphne Cotton WOW BROTHER! THANKS YOU! ●CASTANO BROWN FAMILY. 💜
Hi how many seeds do you leave in the batch?
thank you for these videos can anyone tell me do you throw the oil away after you drain the achiote! 🇵🇷???
The colored oil is what you want to keep,you toss the seeds after it’s cooked in the oil.
I'm tired of traditional American breakfast. Is there any chance you have a cool Puerto Rica breakfast I could serve guests?
How do you measure for a smaller amount
How long does this oil mix last in bottle.
Make sure that when you strain the achiote that no achiote seeds go through. If you see one seed that has gone through stop and take it out. There is nothing worse that biting into one of these seeds while eating your food. Trust me I know from experience.
We use the same oil to make foods from Gaum.
good vid fren
I am so happy that you don't use Sazon in your seasoning since I love to eat at your restaurant
In San Sebastián
Does this oil or the MOJO oil need to be refrigerated?
How long does this stay, on the counter? Can you put it in the fridge. Will it stay fresher longer in the fridge?
Saby Soto yes, I put mine in the fridge. I looked up how long the oil will last in the fridge and it'll last about 2yrs. Up to one year on the counter.
Saby Soto same question
I've heard about 4-5 days at room temperature or in the fridge.
How do you eat it?
Hi boriqua can i use ground anetto with the oil & do i need to boil it?
Is this oil strickly for color or is there a flavor that adds to the dish.
So, it doesn't need to be stored in the fridge?
Thanks, thanks for sharing🙏🏽 Please be careful using canola oil is highly processed and unhealthy
How long can it be on your counter before it starts to spoil?
after you make it do you refrigerate it?
how long can you store the oil? does it need to go in the refrigerator?
When I was a kid my grandmother used to leave hers on the stove, she would open the top of a bean can and bend it half way, then put pin holes in the other half. She would fill it about half way with seeds and fill it almost to the top with oil and just let it sit on the stove all the time so she would have it ready for use. Pretty sure it's still okay to do that haha this was in the 80's
Can I use olive oil??
Yes.
Can you substitute olive oil for the canola oil?
Hola Diana! You can but olive oil is not a neutral flavored oil. Canola oil is less expensive and is pretty neutral in flavor so the achiote will be the only flavor that you will taste. Hope that helps and thank you so much for watching!
@@Thefreakinricanrestaurant thank you!
Hello, can you share with me how I would incorporate the Achiote Oil into the Puerto Rican Recipe? My husband grew up w/his relative(s) using Achiote Oil for their Puerto Rican Rice. Can you help??
Any dish that requires oil and you want to give color to just switch the regular oil with this oil.
Can you use ground instead of seed
Can I store it in a glass jar? Also, do we throw the seed out when we finished?
Claudia yes you can. thats where my grandma stores hers
Yes the used seeds get thrown out.
How long does it last before it goes bad?
What's the difference between achote and saffron
Can you use this to season meat?
Not really to season as much as to give it color.
I found that if you burn or blacken the seeds you get a very undesirable flavor. It then makes all the following PR flavor combinations terrible. As a matter of precaution I bring it to his bubble up stage, then cut the heat off for approximately 20 minutes, then low simmer at 110 °F for 15 minutes, then off. I like to add cumin seeds at this "turn off" stage.
Can I use olive oil
Yes
Let it cool down before adding to the container right! how long can i keep in storage inside the refrigerator or counter may i ask"
About 4-5 days. At room temperature or in the fridge.
Where I live is very difficult to find annatto seeds, all I could find was annatto paste... Can I make it with that? And if so, how?
Yadira Quiles if theres a Walmart near you that's where you can find the annatto seeds in the Hispanic aisle.
If you do this do you still use Sazon?
I use achiote for natural coloring. Store bought sazon has artificial coloring. If your recipe calls for sazon, use one like ours that has only natural ingredients. Hope that helps!
Do u guys sell pasteles?
hi, I'm Marissa. can you tell me the brand of Annatto Seeds you use? I used to get Badia Brand in large container but not able to find anywhere here in west haven ct. thank you so much, love you bunches 😊 👍 ❤
C town in Fair Haven sells it, just got it myself
Mija get any brand.. Its fine. Just get them. Love you so much more. Thank you for continuing to follow us and watching all the videos..
The Freakin Rican Restaurant : OMGOSH, I got my Sofrito and my Freakin Rican cup! I am so excited! So now when I see a notification from your channel, I will get my coffee ready, lol. I just wash it by hand, I don't wanna mess it up in microwave or dishwasher. Thank you so much for your channel, Derrick! hope I spelled your name right 😄 👌 👍 ❤ 🙆
justrisa1 price rite has them. . im from CT also
Id avoid all the Teflon. I you truly want it healthy. Stainless steel for me only or iron cast to add iron to diet!
I hope you realize that you didn't say "to let the oil cool room temperature than pour it into a container " I put mine in a glass meson jar and I keep it in my cabinet :) I didn't know Saxon has MSG😮
Zephyr Chanter I think she meant ‘saźon’.
can you use vegetable or corn oil as well?
Nini Rosado any oil u prefer
I would suggest you avoid these oils at all costs they are highly toxic instead use extra Virgin Olive oil or avocado oil
So annatto seeds get tossed after oil is done? I thought i saw another video where da seeds were in da oil still
Yes they are thrown out after use.
What else can you use this oil in.
What would you use this for?
Everything you add Sazon to. Sazon contains MSG. Look up how toxic this is to our bodies. Not good. So where you would use Sazon which usually gives a beautiful color to your food. Replace it with Achiote Oil . Please subscribe.
The Freakin Rican Restaurant 😗 Can you please make Bistec Encebollado 😗
The Freakin Rican Restaurant Hi, I have been seeing your video's and they truly have been a blessing. You know how us P.Rican's are raised in the sence that we are the babies of the house. So much so that I was so spoiled that my Grandma never wanted me to get burned. So when she would teach I would get burned. Lol She passed away 2013 and I stayed without learning the P.Rican way to make food. I have been learning so much that my Church loves our food. But, this achiote I wouod see my Mom do it but, I never knew for what it is. I read a comment tgat you say it's for everytng? Could you be specific? So instead of putting all the ingredients of powder we just add this and the sofrito?
@@Thefreakinricanrestaurant Does this add flavor too?
+The Freakin Rican Restaurant How long does it last?
I know it's 3 years late...but I think you can keep it in the fridge or shelf at room temperature for up to 4-5 days.
