There are a number of herbs and spices that will help add even more flavour to your dishes alongside paprika. Rosemary is a popular herb in Mediterranean cuisine and adds a sweet, intense flavour to grilled chicken and lamb, potatoes and roast vegetables. Oregano also pairs well with paprika. Full of flavour, it brings citrus and anise flavours to your dishes. Try it alongside paprika when you’re cooking a whole chicken, making crispy potatoes or marinade for your barbeque. And if you’re looking for a complementary spice, try cumin. It brings a spicy, warm flavour and earthy colour to a number of dishes, including meats, vegetables, potatoes, soups and stews. Paprika also goes well with caraway, garlic, ginger and thyme. 

To give your paprika a smoky twist, you’ll need to smoke the peppers before drying them. Start by setting up your smoker and choosing a flavorful wood, like hickory or oak chips. Spread your sweet or hot paprika in a thin layer on a heat-safe dish or tray. Pop it into the smoker, making sure it’s at a safe distance from the heat source.
