Red Rice
Hineksa' Aga'ga'
The most important dish on the Chamorro fiesta table; white rice cooked with achote (annatto) seeds giving it a deep orange-red color; achote was introduced by Spanish settlers likely from the Philippines or Mexico; the annatto releases a dye when soaked in water; other ingredients like bacon, onion, garlic, and peas are often added; an icon of Chamorro culture.
