The quality of the paprika peppers used in the production of paprika oleoresin significantly impacts the final product. Therefore, it is crucial to source high-quality, dried paprika peppers that are rich in pigments and essential oils. Suppliers who work directly with paprika farmers and growers can ensure the freshness and quality of the peppers used in the extraction process.

The word paprika is Hungarian for pepper. At its core, paprika is a powder made up of dried and finely ground red peppers. This globally popular spice can be sweet, spicy, or smoked. Not only does paprika add rich flavor, but also a beautiful red color to dishes.

But did you know it requires heat to bring out its spicy flavor? It's why it's best to use it in recipes that require cooking.

Other than sambal oelek, you can go for chili paste, crushed chili flakes or even cayenne pepper to replace sriracha. Although these substitutes may not be hot enough, neither do they have the same thick consistency as Sriracha, yet will serve the same basic purpose.
