• 2 Tbsp dried oregano, Mexican preferred
• 1 tsp ground black pepper
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon, Mexican canela preferred
• 1/2 tsp ground cloves
• 1/2 tsp ground allspice
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 cup citrus juice
• 1 1/2 oz packet ground achiote (Not paste)

1. Grind any whole spices as necessary, then combine with the achiote and citrus juice and let the spices hydrate (bloom) for at least one hour.
2. Keep the recado and any marinating meat in tightly closed containers inside a leakproof tray.
3. Achiote will stain many plastics and your skin, so rinse off quickly as needed.
