In terms of nutritional value, both paprika and bell peppers are rich in vitamins and antioxidants, but bell peppers have a higher water content and are lower in calories.
Paprika is a popular spice known for its vibrant color and rich flavor. It is made from dried and ground Capsicum annuum peppers, which are commonly known as chili peppers or bell peppers. The specific type of pepper used to make paprika can vary, resulting in different varieties of paprika with distinct flavors and heat levels.
La Vera Smoked Sweet Paprika is also known as dulce. Much like its spicier cousin, this sweet paprika is made by drying freshly-harvested, ripe, red peppers in low-lying, adobe smoke houses. They are placed of smoking grills fired with slow-burning oak planks. After smoking, the paprika is milled by electrically powered stone wheels which must turn very slowly, as heat from friction adversely affects the signature color and flavor.
