Frequently Asked Questions About Paprika

What is paprika made from?
Paprika is made from dried and ground sweet red peppers — typically varieties from the Capsicum annuum species. Our paprika is 100% pure with no additives. The specific pepper variety used determines whether the paprika is sweet, semi-sweet, or hot. Ours is a classic sweet paprika prized for its vibrant color and mild, pleasant flavor.

How hot is paprika on the Scoville Scale?
Sweet paprika measures approximately 100–500 Scoville Heat Units (SHU) — an extremely mild heat. For reference, even a jalapeño at 2,500 SHU is significantly hotter. Paprika is chosen far more for flavor and color than for heat, making it one of the few members of the pepper family that virtually everyone can enjoy.

What's the difference between sweet paprika, smoked paprika, and hot paprika?
Sweet paprika (like ours) is made from mild red peppers and has a gentle, earthy-sweet flavor with no smoke. Smoked paprika (pimentón) is made from peppers that are dried over oak fires, giving it a distinctive smoky flavor. Hot paprika is made from spicier pepper varieties and carries significantly more heat. All three are useful in the kitchen but serve different purposes — sweet paprika for color and mild flavor, smoked for depth, hot for a spicy kick.
