FROM THE RECIPE:

If you haven't used achiote before, it is worth checking out. The mildly sour flavor balanced beautifully with the sweetness of the butternut squash. The red color comes from annatto seed, the same plant used to color cheddar cheese. It is typically sold in a small brick, mixed with spices, vinegar and, sadly, red food dye. This mixture is used frequently in the cuisine of the Yucatan peninsula.

Really very tasty! My husband cooked these- he said grilling the squash was a little tricky, but I say it was well worth it.
