Foto: Márcio Moia Ingredientes: 3 colher (sopa) de óleo 250 gramas de caroços de urucum ½ quilo de fubá de milho (de preferência de moinho d'agua, que é mais fininho) Modo de Fazer: Tirar as sementes e colocar para secar no sol. No dia seguinte, juntar as sementes na gordura e colocar para esquentar, por alguns minutos só até dar uma torradinha. Juntar o fubá de milho, misturar tudo e socar no pilão. Peneirar em peneira bem fina. O corante, quando usado, deve ser colocado na gordura antes de refogar o alimento. Dica: Repassei aqui a receita original, quando era feita em pilão. Mas é claro que pouca gente tem pilão hoje em dia. Pode moer ou bater no liquidificador e depois passe em uma peneira para tirar os carocinhos.
