What is the Sazón dressing?
Sazón’s dressing is a firm point in Latin cuisine, especially in Puerto Rican and Dominican cuisine. The word “Sazón” actually means “condiment” in Spanish, and that’s exactly what this mixture does. Stage the food with a unique mix of salt, garlic, onion, cumin, black pepper, turmeric and Annatto.
Annatto’s seeds not only give Sazón its warm and walnut flavor, but also its distinct reddish-orange shade, which you find in dishes like Pastor. Homemade Sazón allows you to control the ingredients and skip the MSG found in many versions purchased in the shop. Knowing exactly what’s in your food is one of the best parts of the realization of your condiments.
