Colorful • Flavorful • Pantry Essential
Cuisines around the world incorporate paprika for flavor and color. BCFoods paprika is made from long sweet, mild red peppers that are cousins to the chili pepper. It has no heat and a slightly sweet flavor with fruity notes. A pantry staple, paprika pairs well with garlic, tomatoes, and chili peppers.
Paprika contains capsaicin, a compound found in chili peppers that studies show may support cellular, immune, metabolic, skin, and digestive health. This colorful, flavorful spice is also rich in calcium and potassium, which may support healthy teeth, bones, and muscles.(1)
Our paprika powder is available in a variety of vivid red shades ranging from ASTA 85-150 and makes an excellent addition to savory applications. Possibilities include seasoning blends and rubs, sauces, potato chips, frozen meals, ready-to-cook pre-seasoned meats or fish, sausages, and more.
