Ingredients

Origin

Extremadura, Spain

For over a century our partner farm has been cultivating ñora peppers for pimentón in Extremadura, Spain, a storied region dubbed the “Spanish Wild West” for its high concentration of Old World conquistadors. Picked at peak autumnal ripeness, the peppers are smoked over oak wood for two weeks, during which the farmer turns over the fruit by hand once daily. Milling is equally unhurried—the smoked peppers are slowly stone-ground to maintain sweetness (metal grinders can burn and bitter). Our pimentón has the Denominacion de Origen, a prestigious distinction for Spain’s finest agricultural provisions.

Tips for Success

The compounds in paprika disperse flavor and color well in oil. Smoked paprika is ground fine which is susceptible to burn easier than coarse ground spices. If this spice is burnt the bitter flavors will increase because it already has a Smokey aroma.
