Peppers grown in the La Vera region of Spain are dried slowly over oak logs for twelve to fifteen days before grinding into paprika.

I sprinkle it on deviled eggs, potato salad, baked potatoes, soups, etc.
Yum!

And even "generic" smoked paprika is EXPENSIVE!! I'm almost afraid to

(54,256 posts)OK, she says it's no more than many of the spices she buys.
I could get no dollar amount.
She doesn't mind so much if I go grocery shopping with her, but I bring home stuff like tins of smoked oysters, sardines, and anchovies.
She will not eat the oysters or sardines.
Oh, and I get liverwurst.
She won't eat that either.

I think we must have got the wrong kind of paprika.

(34,136 posts)I could never get mine to taste like the dish I got at good Cuban restaurants until I got some smoked paprika and added it.
I need to buy some more - I still have some, but it is years old and is very stale.
