Overview

A spice rack, a stew pot or a brunch plate of deviled eggs is where this paprika earns its place: a sweet pepper seasoning in a jar, used for gentle flavor and vivid red color.

Sweet, gentle pepper flavor and a strong red color make it a base for barbecue rubs, goulash and paprikash as well as a garnish. The limitation is that it is plain sweet paprika, with no smoke and no heat.

Who it's for

Home cooks making paprikash, stews, roasted potatoes or homemade rubs who go through the spice often enough to justify a big jar. People after smoke or heat, or those who season lightly and rarely, are better off with a different spice.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Mild sweet pepper flavor
  • Vivid red color for garnish
  • Kosher and vegan
  • Large jar for frequent use
Cons
  • No smoke and no heat
  • Large jar slow to use up
  • Nutrition panel not listed

Performance notes

Sweet paprika contributes fruity, toasty notes and red color rather than heat. Stirred into stews and casseroles it flavors the liquid, and rubbed on chicken or pork it forms a seasoning base for barbecue. As a finishing sprinkle on eggs or mashed potatoes it works mainly as color.
