OVERVIEW:
Hungarian paprika is a bit hotter and slightly less sweet than basic paprika. Paprika peppers, also known as pimento peppers or sweet red peppers, have very little heat and add a nicely rounded and mildly smoked flavor. It's relished for its vibrant color and is used all over the world. It is essential to Hungarian cuisines but also provides wonderful seasoning for marinades, soups, stews, potatoes, eggs, and cheese dishes.
Members of the nightshade family, chili peppers have a lot going for them. Capsaicin is the main bioactive plant compound in chile peppers and the more capsaicin it contains the hotter the chile pepper. Chile peppers have a long list of health benefits and will always provide you an abundance of vitamins and minerals. They are rich in antioxidant and anti-inflammatory plant compounds.
