What Is Paprika Made From?

Paprika is made from dried and ground sweet or hot peppers (Capsicum annuum). In Hungary, these peppers are cultivated with great care and dried naturally in the sun or smoked over wood to create the famous smoked paprika. The result is a pure, flavor-rich powder packed with nutrients and culinary potential.
