Basically you take the seeds not ground you warm your olive oil and add 1-2 tablespoons in the oil when it starts to sizzle and the oil starts to turn a orange color your done. Do not burn or it will be ruined. Drain the oil removing the seeds and store in a seal tight container. I use it to infuse flavor & color on rice meats and soups mainly in mexican spanish and cuban foods that I make. Browning your roasts or chop meats in this makes the most flavorful taste. I also brown chop meat with this and then drain for tacos. Your rice comes out amazing when adding this little gem! Try it im sure you love it. Its become a staple in my Latin recipes even when the recipe doesnt call for it I add it! Have you tried to Ropa Vieja (old clothes) roast recipe I posted from Daisy Martinez...its wonderful
