Sweet paprika, also known as mild paprika, is made from sweet red peppers, such as bell peppers, and is known for its vibrant red color and mild, sweet flavor with little to no heat. It is often used to add color and a subtle, sweet flavor to dishes without adding spiciness. Sweet paprika is a common ingredient in dishes like deviled eggs, potato salad, and Hungarian goulash.

1. Make sure your dried paprika peppers are super dry and crispy. They should break easily.



When you’re making a dish where taste is more important than colour, hot sauce is a brilliant alternative to paprika. Just remember to choose one that fits in with your tastes or you may end up with something too hot or not hot enough.
