Is that annatto seed, paste, ground or oil?

I usually use annatto powder bought at the latin market, so I guess that would be ground seeds?

Thanks for the recipe, now what do I use it for? It sounds really good.

PS: If you can find the ingredients adding culantro, ajíce and pork will make a very authentic sofrito...but you can't get those in most places in the world.
