But what if you can’t find these traditional Hungarian peppers? Don’t worry! An excellent alternative that you can easily find in the US is the Sweet Hungarian or Sweet Banana pepper. These elongated peppers share similarities with their Hungarian counterparts and have a mild, slightly sweet flavor. You can usually find them at local grocery stores or farmers’ markets, making them a convenient choice for homemade “Hungarian” paprika.

Paprika is named differently from bell pepper because it is a different product with a different taste and use. The name “paprika” comes from the Hungarian word for pepper, which reflects the fact that Hungary is a major producer of the spice. Bell pepper, on the other hand, is named for its shape and color.
