Product Description

La Dalia Hot Smoked Paprika is made using traditional methods in the La Vera region of Spain. High-quality peppers are dried over oak wood fires, giving it a unique and distinctive taste. This paprika is characterised by its intense, smoky flavour and vibrant red colour. Careful selection of hot peppers ensures that this paprika packs a wickedly spicy punch! Its smoky aroma makes it a perfect seasoning for meat, poultry, vegetables, soups, stews, and even sauces.

La Dalia Hot Smoked Paprika has earned the coveted “Pimentón de la Vera” status. This designation ensures the paprika’s origin and quality, with products made from native pepper varieties like Jaranda, Jariza, and Bola, which are then ground using stone mills to produce a finely textured, smoky paprika available in sweet, hot, and bittersweet varieties. Only products meeting the strict regulations for origin, quality and traditional production methods can display this designation.
