A common Middle Eastern spice, Aleppo chili powder is used to season meat, salads, sauces, and dips. Basically, you can use it as you would any type of paprika. Another notable similarity is their heat. Aleppo has moderate to medium heat with a salty and earthy flavor. But since it’s salty, this swap should not be one is to one. We suggest starting with ¼ teaspoon and gradually adding more to taste. 

Sweet paprika is the one most commonly found in supermarket aisles and adds vibrant colour to any dish it touches. Mild and delicate, and warm rather than hot, it’s the perfect choice if you want to add peppery flavour to your food without the heat. It tends to be more fruity and a little bitter too. If you’re cooking a recipe that doesn’t specify the type of paprika, sweet paprika is definitely your best bet.
