Рецепт Smoked paprika: like or dislike?
Welcome to Like or Dislike, where you get to share how you really feel about ingredients from the pantry, ingredients I'm thinking about adding to my pantry, other seasonal foods, and favorite cooking gear. The things you like are sure to find their way to the recipes here on The Perfect Pantry, so do tell.
Do you remember, or do you still use, liquid smoke? I never liked it or added it to my barbecue sauces, or meatless soups or stews, and some of my recipes tasted a bit bland without that smoky flavor. Then I discovered smoked paprika, a wonderful spice from a particular region of Spain, which gives just the smoky kick I love. Ten years ago, it was a specialty store item, but these days you can find smoked paprika in the spice section of most supermarkets. Paired with cumin, another smoky spice, it bumps up the flavor of everything from chili to scrambled eggs. Use the hot smoked paprika when you want a bit of a jolt; use sweet when you want a gentle smoky note, or bittersweet when you just can't decide. I keep all on hand at all times, because you never know.
