Paprika - Hungarian, Spanish, Smoked
Paprika (Capsicum annum) grows throughout the world including the Southwestern United States. A Hungarian word, paprika is a long fruited, sweet species of capsicum. The spice, which is used primarily as a food color, is produced from the ripe fruit, which has been deseeded, destemed, dried and ground. Paprika is an excellent source of vitamins and has more vitamin C than oranges. Hungary's Nobel prize-winning Albert Szent-Györgyi first discovered vitamin C in paprika peppers.
Paprika is the national spice of Hungary and is an essential ingredient in many Balkan dishes. Most Hungarian paprika has a somewhat musty flavor and is sweet with no heat. We offer a variety of the Hungarian paprika that has mild heat. Any paprika with heat is called "hot" to separate it from the typically sweet varieties. In Hungary this variety is known as "félédes." Another type with more heat is known as "eros." Due to the popularity of chilies, growing paprika without heat can be a challenge. Capsicum annum will cross pollinate with any variety of capsicum frutescens. All the capsicum frutescens varieties have heat and are dominant. As a result, paprika will usually have heat if grown near other types of capsicum.Spanish paprika has less flavor than Hungarian. While also slightly musty, its mild flavor almost disappears with cooking. The Spanish use paprika in everything from chorizo sausage and lomo to chilindron sauces. They sprinkle it on top of octopus, fish, chicken and even fried eggs! Smoked paprika, which the Spanish call "Pimenton de la Vera Dulce" is a popular ingredient in many Mediterranean recipes. The Spanish and Italians love the flavor of smoked paprika and use it in many dishes. Its flavor is especially important for authentic Spanish cooking. The peppers used for smoked paprika are slowly, dried over an oak burning fire for several weeks. The result is a paprika with a sweet, cool, smoked flavor. Using smoked paprika is a great way to add both color and a smoky flavor to your dishes.

Why Buy Your Spices at Silver Cloud
Estates?
Why buy spices online when they are so readily available at your local store? The answer is quality and price. The spices sold at your local store are often a year or two old. As spices age, they loose much of their flavor. Silver Cloud's spices are always fresh, never old. Our products are also an excellent value. When you need spices, click on Silver Cloud Estates for the freshest products at great prices.
