If you like it chipotle stylee, or make chilli con carnes etc, I just recently discovered a way to get that smoky hot taste without using expensive mesquite liquid, and this adds heat and richness too:
Bought a shed load of tins bulk purchase from popular online store. Gave some away as gifts. This is miles above any smoked paprika I’ve ever used, the colour is incredible, the taste is deep and robust and it smells like a campfire.
Link to online store please? I may need to buy shed load for pickle veg.
If you’re going to buy pimentón, the best stuff is “Pimentón de la Vera”, which is a Spanish DOP (similar to wine regions) controlling quality etc.
I bought all of mine from TK Maxx the smoke paprika is very nice as well as the hot smoke paprika ones … I think I have 3 tins of them. The tin cover is a bit weak so need to open them carefully or you will bend the tin cover. 😀
