Can I store oil in the fridge for longer life?

@Flex1334 you can, but I don't suggest yopu keep it more than a few days. It may go bad and you wouldn't want that!!! Thanks for the question...

@demmylowther You raised a very valid point--many people who are not familiar with this particular item would be a bit confused as its use. Achiote Oil is often used as a coloring oil to color yellow rice or fish or even some meats and stews. It is used in place of oil and it adds a delicate nutty flavor that is unique to Annatto seeds and latin foods. I have demonstrated how to use this oil in my video for llapingachos. In the future I will try to make videos that explain the use of items.
