Paprika is a fiery flavouring that for many, is just as essential to your kitchen as salt and pepper. It’s a spice rack staple, ground from a variety of dried red peppers in the Capsicum annuum family, including red, bell, cayenne and chilli peppers. This vibrant red spice ranges in flavour from mild and slightly sweet to hot and spicy, and its main use is to add flavour and colour to dishes, rather than heat.

Discover what sets chili powder, red pepper flakes and paprika apart; get insights into their culinary versatility and how they can be used to elevate your cooking and learn about common red pepper varieties used in your favorite spices.
If you want to add a nice spicy kick without all the overpowering heat, chili powder is a suitable sweet paprika substitute. Despite that, you can’t use chili powder in a 1:1 substitution because of its noticeable savory flavor that comes from a mix of other spices such as onion powder, cumin, garlic, and more. In general, it has an earthy, savory, and slightly spicy taste. But it will do if you’re in a bind or in the middle of garnishing your deviled eggs and curries.
