Ingredients
- 4 bell peppers green, yellow, red, and orange

- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp kosher salt
- 2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Quarter, stem, and deseed the bell peppers and cubanelle pepper.
- If using whole annatto seeds, powder them in a spice grinder or high powered blender
- Put all of the ingredients into a large food processor and blend on low until all the ingredients are finely chopped.
- Pour your sazón into clean airtight containers. Keep in the fridge for up to 4 weeks, or put into freezer safe containers and freeze for up to 6 months.

Notes
- Store in the Fridge: Keep the sazon in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 weeks.
- Freeze for Later Use: pour the sazon into ice cube trays or into quart sized freezer safe zip top
- Use a food processor, not a blender. We want things to have a chunky quality, not as smooth as Puerto Rican sofrito.
- Label and date your jars, even if they're clear, so you what they are and when they'll expire.
- If you're a soap-gene person, use parsley instead of cilantro. Culantro doesn't tend to set off the soap gene.
