I have a recipe from my cousin in Ecuador that calls for achiote. I did a search. Annatto is another name for it. When I went searching for it in the Latino section of the store, I found several Sazon Goya products and bought one that has it as an ingredient along with other spices that are included in the original recipe. There was one other option that was a mix of annatto and coriander. I know coriander and cilantro are the same thing and I cannot stand cilantro (soapy taste) so was afraid to gamble on it. Would the coriander (I'm assuming it was ground seeds since it was a powder) have the same taste as the cilantro leaves that I cannot stand? I'd like to know for future reference if I make this dish again.
