Joan s Confetti Yellow Rice Preparation

Saute onions and peppers till soft but not browned. Stir in raw rice and cook a few minutes. Add the stock and annato oil and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer until rice is tender. Let rest off heat 5 minutes. Fluff with fork. Season to taste. Stir in thawed green peas.Flavorful, colorful and delicious. Annato oil* annato seeds are achiote seeds. The seeds are simmered in oil to extract the orange yellow color used in many Hispanic dishes. The colored oil may color grains, pastries , vegetables or even add a golden yellow color as a poultry baste. to make oil: Bring 1 cup oil ( I use olive ) with 1/2 cup annato seeds to almost a boil. Simmer 5 minutes. Strain oil and cool and refrigerate. Use about 1 to 2 tsp in rice dishes.Annato tends to be bitter, so use sparingly. In small amounts no bitter taste is noticed. Of course tumeric and curry do color and flavor but yuou may like to try this for a pleasant change. Note: annato really stains, so be careful not to spill it !
