Can paprika be used as a substitute for bell pepper?

Chili sauce is really a generic term for any sauce that utilizes chilies, tomato sauce, vinegar (sometimes), sugar, and other spices. The key differentiator from the traditional hot sauce is its thickness. Chili sauce isn’t something you’d sprinkle from a hot sauce dasher bottle. It’s thicker, often more akin to ketchup in flow.

When it comes to drying paprika peppers, there are a few methods you can choose from based on your preference and equipment available. Each method has its advantages, but using a dehydrator is generally considered the best approach, providing efficient and consistent results.
