The term paprika can refer to both the whole dried peppers and the ground powder made from them. In some contexts, paprika may specifically refer to the whole dried peppers, while paprika powder refers to the ground spice. However, in most culinary discussions, the terms are used interchangeably to refer to the powdered spice.

Origins

Paprika oleoresin is a natural extract derived from the spice paprika, which is made from ground, dried Capsicum annuum peppers. The oleoresin is obtained through a solvent extraction process that captures the essential oils, pigments, and flavors of paprika. It is a concentrated form of the spice, often used as a coloring and flavoring agent in the food industry.
