Paprika de la Vera 45 g, spicy PDO, Hispaniola

Product detailed description

Hispaniola Hot Smoked Paprika is a spice that doesn't pretend to be a subtle soup garnish. It is slowly dried in oak wood smoke for more than ten days, so when it reaches your dish, it brings not just colour, but a veritable little Spanish fire alarm with excellent taste.

Main advantages:

• Hot Smoked Paprika de la Vera adds a rich colour, smoky aroma, and Spanish temperament to paella, sauces, and stews.
• The Pimentón de la Vera P.D.O. Protected Designation of Origin confirms its link to the Cáceres region and the traditional production typical of La Vera.
• This hot variant is made from selected spicier paprika varieties, giving the spice a more pronounced flavour character.
• Slow smoke drying over oak or holm oak wood takes more than ten days and creates a typical smoky aroma.
• During drying, the peppers are turned by hand every day to gradually achieve the correct level of dryness and a uniform result.
• Traditional grinding in stone mills helps preserve the rich colour, intense taste, and characteristic smoky aroma.
• The spice adds a warming heat, a deeper red tone, and a character that naturally belongs to authentic Spanish rice to paella.
• In sauces, a small pinch creates a smoky, spicy base that can transform tomato, meat, or vegetable sauces.
• Stewed meats, legumes, or vegetable mixes gain a fuller taste thanks to the hot smoked paprika, without the need for complex seasoning.
• Potatoes, eggs, or grilled vegetables appear more pronounced with it, as the sweeter smoky tone is complemented by a pleasant heat.
• You will appreciate this spice when you want to give your food a Spanish expression but don't want to reach for a hot sauce.
• The small package with a net weight of 45 g is ideal for home cooking, where the paprika should be fragrant, distinct, and easy to dose.
• The Black box with the prominent Pimentón de la Vera Picante inscription looks intense and visually corresponds to the hot smoked variant.
• The Hispaniola brand relies on Spanish spices as the foundation of true taste, not just as a colour effect in the finished dish.
• Pimentón de la Vera Hot Smoked Paprika is a small touch of fire, smoke, and Spanish tradition for dishes that deserve deeper character.
