This paprika is distinguished with the Protected Denomination of Origin, so only paprika produced in this region can be called La Vera paprika, and it is carefully monitored to meet this order of protection. We also carry Smoked Hot Paprika from the La Vera region of Spain.

It has a 120-140 premium ASTA measurement, so it is valued for its vibrant red color.

How to Use

La Vera Smoked Sweet Paprika is the right paprika to use when you want a deep, smoky flavor balance by a touch of sweet and mild chile flavor. It’s important in Romesco Sauce, made from red peppers and flavored with vinegar and paprika. Toss over Moorish Pork Skewers and grill, and serve with Tangy Garlic Sauceon the side for extra flavor. Enjoy it in Spanish style tapas, like the garlic-rich Artichokes al Ajillo, or toss over Quick and Easy Spicy Grilled Shrimp for an entrée that’s ready in minutes.

La Vera Smoked Sweet Paprika is a good chile powder to use with sausage, beans, stews, seafood, casseroles, chicken, meatloaf, vegetables, rice, sauces, soups, salad dressings, egg dishes, and other nightshade family members, especially potatoes and tomatoes.

La Vera Smoked Sweet Paprika is stellar in a DIY spice rub. It pairs well with allspice, caraway, cardamom, garlic, ginger, oregano, parsley, pepper, rosemary, saffron, thyme, and turmeric.
