Pride of Szeged Hot Paprika Powder, Bright Red, 4 oz. Tin, 1-Count

This stuff is a million times better than anything you'd see at American grocery store called "paprika". The color and flavor profile are out of this world. On one hand, this `Hot` version is more picante than most "chili powder" or "cayenne powder" I've tried. But the thing is, it's not just a source of heat... there is a somewhat sweet and earthy flavor behind the heat. The color is much richer and more vibrant than anything I've seen at the supermarket, and it will lend that color to any dish you desire it for. This is a Hungarian spice, but I find myself using for many different types of cuisine, that's how good it is!

Wow! Definitely hot. Always makes me sneeze just like pepper. Good product.

If cayenne is too hot and regular paprika is not hot enough, then hot paprika is my goto spice. This paprika adds heat but you use less and it doesn’t alter the overall flavor as much as smoked paprika. The small canister lasts a long time and the paprika retains its flavor. Hot paprika is a unique product that can elevate the flavor without adding excessive heat.

Good stuff Use In fried chicken and all types of other things like soups or dusting broiled lobster tail !

Boy it’s HOT

This is a high quality paprika. It’s the very best and the only paprika that I ever use.

For years I bought the same McCormick brand of paprika that my mom used when I was growing up. I generally only used it for a light, pretty dusting on deviled eggs and never really felt that it added much, if any, flavor of its own. I'd periodically toss the old container when I assumed it would be getting stale and replace it with a fresh one. Although, really, who could tell that mostly flavorless paprika had gone stale? That changed when I found Szeged's Hungarian Style Hot Paprika. I use it often enough that I actually empty the tin and have to order more. No more tossing of old, stale paprika. While I'll still occasionally use it on deviled eggs for my family (we like spicy stuff!), I think it's too hot of a paprika to use to serve to most crowds of other deviled-egg-lovers who may not like that heat. Instead, I now use Szeged's Sweet Paprika for that. But for other things, it's wonderful! Besides being great in goulash and chicken paprikash, it's also spicy and wonderful sprinkled with other seasonings on roasted potatoes, chicken, and other meats. I make a dry rub for steak and pork chops that has salt, pepper, hot paprika, onion and garlic powder, oregano, cumin, and a bit of brown sugar. I rub the dry mixture heavily into both sides of the thick-cut steak and leave the steaks out at room temperature for an hour. After searing or grilling, the steaks are spicy and flavorful and the brown sugar helps them to get that seared brown and crispy outside while retaining the rareness inside. I would give this five stars but I'm not thrilled with the tin that it's packaged in. While the tin is of nice quality, the two options for using it aren't ideal in my opinion. The "sprinkle" side has too large of holes so it's nearly impossible to get a light sprinkle. And the larger opening isn't large enough for even my smaller measuring spoons. So I've resolved that issue by moving it into a glass spice bottle with a more workable sprinkle top and I can simply unscrew the lid if I need to dip a measuring spoon in.

Love it.

Great product. Have bought this multiple times. A little goes a long way as this is very hot. Unlike many hot products, there is a lot of flavour, so it's both hot and tasty. Highly recommend if looking for hot paprika

Couldn't get this product in any stores, glad amazon had it. I use it on grilled and roasted chicken. Also great in tomato sauce and chili.
