COMMODITIES TRADERS - BRAZSPICE SPICES
Paprika is a ground spice made from dried red fruits of the larger and sweeter varieties of the plant Capsicum annuum, called bell pepper or sweet pepper.
Paprika is produced in various places including Argentina, Mexico, Hungary, Serbia, Spain, the Netherlands, China and some regions of the United States. Hungary is a major source of commonly used paprika.
Sweet Paprikas are the most common types and are usually just labeled as paprika. They will generally have some sweetness, bright color, and usually only a little heat.
Spanish Paprika Vs. Hungarian Paprika.
Spanish and Hungarian paprika are two of the most common varieties of the spice, with the latter arguably better known in places like the US. But the climate and preparation techniques differ greatly between Hungary and Spain, resulting in two distinct versions of the same spice.
The cooler climate in Hungary allows the peppers grown there to retain their natural sugars, resulting in a sweeter-tasting paprika. Hungarian paprika uses toasted peppers, and the final product comes in comes in eight different varieties with varying degrees of pungency and spiciness.
Meanwhile, the warmer growing conditions in Spain changes the flavor of the peppers—and the resulting paprika—quite a bit. Many (but not all) Spanish paprikas use smoked peppers (more on that in a bit!), giving Spanish pimentón its distinctive smoky flavor.
Smoked Paprikas known as Spanish and are made with oak-smoked peppers. They can run from mild to very hot in spiciness. Smoked paprika is nothing less than a culinary magic trick- adding rich chile flavor and authentic smoke flavor to a dish without adding heat! From the La Vera region of Spain, this famous smoked paprika has a rich, deep character usually found only in hot chiles like the chipotle. Here the dulce variety lends the undertones of fire roasting without overpowering a dish with heat.
