Bixa Orellana : It is a shrub native to an area between the Americas and Mexico. Bixa orellana is cultivated in many countries around the world. The tree is best known as the source of annatto, a natural orange-red flavor derived from the waxy arils covering its seeds. Ground Bixa orellana seeds are often mixed with other seeds or spices to form a paste or powder for culinary uses in Latin American, Jamaican, Chamorro and Philippine cuisines. The seeds are heated in oil to remove their dyes and flavors for use in dishes and processed foods such as cheese, butter, soups, sauces, processed meats and other products. The seeds impart a subtle flavor and aroma to foods and a yellow to reddish-orange color.
