Paprika powder is widely used in cuisines around the world, including Hungarian, Spanish, and Indian cuisines, among others. It is a versatile spice that can be used to season meats, stews, soups, vegetables, and rice dishes.

Let's get into some history. Capsaicin was first extracted in 1816 by Christian Fridrich. Further work by John Clough Thresh led to its naming in 1876, but it wasn´t until 1898 that Karl Micko isolated the compound in pure crystalline form. A century later, in 1997, David Julius discovered and cloned the cellular receptor for capsaicin, and brought a new level of understanding on how capsaicin works. We´ll get more into this science in the second part of this blog.
