When cooking with dried red pepper pods, it's important to handle them with care. The oils in the peppers can cause irritation to the skin and eyes, so it's best to wear gloves when handling them. Additionally, it's a good idea to remove the seeds from the pods before using them if you prefer a milder heat.

Paprika is a good source of vitamin E, which is an antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage. It also contains vitamin A, vitamin K, and vitamin B6. In addition, paprika has some minerals like zinc, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium.

Bell peppers definitely have a less spicy flavor and heat level than the peppers used to make hot paprika. But I have tried bell pepper powder in many of my recipes, and it worked just fine.

Paprika will uplift your dishes with subtle earthy notes and a gorgeous red colour, without ever overpowering the other ingredients. Making the spice a true team player.
