Smoked paprika, such as Spanish pimentón, is made from peppers that have been smoked over oak fires, giving it a distinct smoky flavor. This type of paprika can be sweet or hot, and its spiciness can vary depending on the specific variety. The smoky flavor adds depth to dishes and is often used in recipes like barbecue, paella, and marinades.

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.
