Annato (achiote in Spanish) actually is familiar to most Americans, consciously or not, if they read ingredients labels. The seeds contain a powerful natural red-orange coloring agent, used to color to a wide range of foods including cheeses and baked goods. Around Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula, annato is exploited more fully for its complex savory flavor too. It combines with citrus juice to infuse cochinita pibil, the celebrated slow-cooked pork specialty.
