This flavored fat is used in Peruvian cooking and other Latin American cuisines to add color and rich flavor to foods. You can substitute canola or another neutral oil for the lard. Leaf lard is available from high-quality butcher shops selling pork. Annatto seeds are available at Latin American markets or online from www.penzeys.com.
