Smoked Paprika

IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.


I bought smoked sweet Spanish paprika a few weeks ago, but hadn't used it until today.

I don't know the last time I have been this excited by a spice.  I roasted a chicken, rubbed with some butter, salt and pepper inside and out, with a few garlic gloves in the cavity, and then roasted baby potatoes with cherry tomatoes, tossed in salt, pepper, olive oil and the paprika.  My life has been changed.

  1. what's the flavor difference between this and regular paprika?

  2. It has that deepy smokey taste to it, and rich. It tasted fucking RICH! My co-worker smelt my leftovers, said they smelt amazing, like bacon.

    Regular paprika is pretty mild/just for color for me? My entire apartment smelt bananas when the vegetables were roasting - just because of the smoked paprika!
