Nutritional Benefits

Dried paprika peppers are naturally fat-free, low in calories, and gluten-free. They provide vitamins A and C and antioxidant carotenoids, which also give them their rich red color. A mild, plant-based, vegan-friendly way to add color and sweet pepper flavor without added sodium or fat.

How to Use

Remove the stems before use. Toast very gently on a dry comal to release aroma without scorching, as sweet peppers can turn bitter quickly. Grind into homemade paprika, soak in hot water for about 15 minutes and blend to color and enrich salsas and stews, or simmer whole to tint broths and rice a deep red.

Recipes
