How is paprika used? The most popular form of paprika is sweet paprika, meaning it has no heat. This spice is a rich red color, and is used to add sweet and earthy flavor to meals. Common dishes that use paprika range from authentic Hungarian goulash, to chicken paprikash, rice dishes, chili con carne, eggs, soups, and stews.

Paprika is a spice made from dried and ground peppers, most commonly from the Capsicum annuum plant. It is known for its bright red color and mild to hot flavor, depending on the variety of pepper used. Paprika is commonly used in Hungarian, Spanish, and Indian cuisines, and is often used to add color and flavor to dishes such as stews, soups, and meat dishes.

Hot Sauce Use Cases

While it's a good paprika substitute when you want mild spiciness and heat when using a 1:1 substitution ratio, you can increase the amount added for more heat. Specifically, you can double the amount of what's listed in your recipe for hot paprika.
