Product Description
Pimenton Ahumado - Rich and complex with Smokey overtones, this paprika is the foundation for many Spanish dishes. Use this paprika to develop rich flavors on meat and seafood dishes. This gourmet quality paprika is far superior to the bland Hungarian or Domestic varieties available at your local supermarket. The Fresh pods from the mild Nora Pepper are smoked over oak logs to develop the flavors. This technique brings out different aspects of the peppers complex flavor, thus we suggest trying out at least two different varieties in your cooking. Peppers smoked over an oak fire develop into a rich and complex palate which is much more powerful and pronounced than in our sun-dried varieties.
We suggest Sweet and Hot Varieties for sauces, vegetables, fish, eggs, and French Fries. We suggest the Bittersweet and Smoked varieties for Paella, Fabada, beef, lamb, or for use on the grill.
As with saffron, pimenton releases its flavor when heated. Sprinkled over a colorless dish, the pimenton will liven up the color without changing the flavor. Adding to a cooking recipe, the flavor will be released to infuse the dish with complex flavors.
One important note: The sugar content of pimenton is very high, thus you must be cautious not to overcook the spice or it will burn. Add to a cooking dish only when liquids are present, and then keep a watchful eye if using high heat.

This stuff rocks! September 16, 2008

I'm so glad I found out about "smoked" paprika. It really enhances so many dishes -- and I hadn't even heard of it until a couple of months ago (thanks Food Network!) The quality is excellent and I will be ordering this again!

Smokier please.... August 20, 2008

Expected a deeper, smokier tone to this paprika than I got. Deserves praise for not being bitter (burnt) in processing, which some pimenton exhibit. Taste is delightful, but if you specifically want rich smoky nose to your paprika, try another.

This stuff is great. I put it everything but dessert. It really kicked up a mushroom and onion gravy we put on cube steaks. Plus, don't forget what it does for paella, the reason I bought it.

Very Authentic Flavor! January 20, 2008

I am so happy that I was able to order real Spanish smoked paprika thru Amazon as it is impossible to find where I live. My husband and I cook Spanish dishes often and this paprika from "Chiquilin" has helped us recreate that authentic Spanish flavor in our own kitchen. So far I've used it in paella Valenciana, caldereta (a type of lamb stew) and our favorite, garlic shrimp. I'm also going to try the mild and hot varieties.
