Hot rose paprika, fiery, fruity heat from Hungarian tradition
Hot rose paprika is a classic of Hungarian cooking. The hand-picked pods are stone-ground, which gives a finely fruity, concentrated paprika note with a strong, fiery heat. Packed by us in Klingenberg am Main.
How to use
Hot rose paprika goes with duck, chicken, beef, veal and pork, as well as cheese, pulses, vegetables and rice. A classic in goulash, lecso, paprika chicken, stews and sauces.
Important: Do not expose paprika powder to strong heat, otherwise it turns bitter. Take the pot off the heat and only then stir in the paprika. Dose sparingly, the heat comes faster than expected.
