Smoked Paprika
Smoked Paprika is a richly flavoured spice made from dried peppers that have been slowly smoked before grinding, giving it a deep, warm smokiness alongside a gentle sweetness. Finely milled for easy blending, it adds colour, aroma, and a subtle depth that works across a wide range of savoury dishes.
Often used in Spanish and Mediterranean cooking, smoked paprika is ideal for building flavour in stews, sauces, and marinades, or for adding a smoky finish to roasted vegetables and meats. Its vibrant red colour also brings visual warmth to dishes, making it as useful for presentation as it is for flavour.
A reliable store cupboard ingredient, it’s a simple way to introduce a rounded, smoky note without the need for additional cooking techniques.
