Achiote Marinade

– By Chef Carmen Rodriguez –

Indgredients:
  • 8 oz. Achiote paste
  • 4 oz. garlic (12 cloves)
  • 1 oz. toasted cumin
  • 3 cups vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp. kosher salt
  • 2 tsp. black pepper
Directions:
  • Place all ingredients into blender and blend until smooth.
  • Place thawed meat (beef, chicken, pork, tofu, shrimp, fish) in a bowl large enough to cover with the marinade. Use a gallon ziplock bag with air pressed out for best results.
