Аннатто – натуральная альтернатива искусственным красителям
Краситель ахиот – это натуральное вещество, получаемое из семян тропического дерева Bixa orellana. Это дерево произрастает в основном в Латинской Америке и известно своим плодом – ахиотом, в котором содержатся семена, используемые для получения красителя.
В пищевой промышленности аннато является универсальным красителем, используемым для окрашивания широкого спектра продуктов. Основным активным соединением аннато является биксин – каротиноид, отвечающий за его характерный желто-оранжевый цвет.
