Homemade Sazón Recipe

🧂 Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons annatto seeds
• 1 tablespoon cumin seeds
• 1 tablespoon coriander seeds
• 1 tablespoon garlic granules
• 1 tablespoon onion granules
• 1 tablespoon dry oregano
• ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
• 2 tablespoons coarse salt
• ½ teaspoon ground white pepper

Instructions

• 1 Add the annatto seeds, cumin seeds, and coriander seeds to a medium-sized frying
  pan.
• 2 Cook the spices over low to medium heat for 5 to 6 minutes while frequently
  stirring.
• 3 Once they become slightly toasted, you’ll be able to notice that the annatto
  seeds start to bleed their color into the pan and the coriander and cumin will
  get light brown around the edges. In addition, they’ll become very aromatic.
• 4 Next, transfer the mixture of toasted spices to a spice grinder or mortar and
  pestle, and grind until finely ground.
• 5 Transfer to a bowl, or add in the garlic granules, onion granules, oregano,
  turmeric, salt, and pepper, and pulse the spice grinder just to mix it.
• 6 Taste the mixture and see if it needs more salt or pepper.
• 7 Store or try the sazón spice blend in my Colombian chicken stew recipe.
