This paprika is a unique product with the denomination of origin protection, (d.o.p.). It has a bold smoky flavor with a hint of sweetness that will add flavor and depth to any dish.paprika is a spice made from ground, dried fruits of the chili pepper family of the genus capsicum annuum. Although paprika is often associated with hungarian cuisine the chilies it is made from are native to the new world. Spain and portugal introduced capsicum annuum to the old world from the americas. Spanish piment, as it is known there, is often smoked, giving it a unique earthy flavor. The seasoning is also used to add color and flavor to many types of dishes in the cuisines of turkey, spain, portugal, greece, hungary, romania, croatia, serbia, bulgaria, morocco, and south africa. Paprika is principally used to season and color rices, stews, and soups, such as goulash, and in the preparation of sausages as an ingredient that is mixed with meats and other spices. In the united states, paprika is frequently sprinkled on foods as a garnish, but the flavor is more effectively produced by heating it gently in oil.

• ALL FLAVOR Do you find that most paprikas are all color, no flavor? La Dalia is different. This sweet smoked paprika powder delivers a deep red color and rich, smoky flavor that adds savory depth to eggs, meat, chicken, potatoes, and vegetables. You’ll never wonder why you add paprika seasoning to food again.
• RAISED IN SPAIN La Dalia is Spain’s oldest paprika manufacturer, producing pimentón in La Vera since 1913. Fresh dulce peppers are harvested at peak ripeness, slow-smoked over oak wood, and finely ground into sweet paprika powder. This creates authentic Spanish paprika: sweet, fruity, and gently smoky.
• DOP-CERTIFIED La Dalia is protected by DOP (Denominación de Origen Protegida), the highest designation for Spanish pimentón. This guarantees that every pepper is grown, smoked, and ground exclusively in the La Vera region of Spain using traditional methods. The result is a smoked paprika that can’t be replicated anywhere else.
• STONE-GROUND FOR BETTER FLAVOR Slowly stone-ground to preserve the pepper’s natural oils, flavor, and aroma. This artisanal method creates a richer, more authentic smoked paprika.
• GOURMET TINS Display your La Dalia smoked paprika seasoning on the counter or shelf - its vibrant, vintage look adds a classic Spanish touch. A gourmet essential and a thoughtful gift for anyone who enjoys authentic flavor.
