McCormick Mild Red Pepper Seasoning 5lbs 2.27kg
McCormick Mild Red Pepper Seasoning is a blended spice made from ground red pepper and paprika, designed to add gentle heat along with warm, pepper flavor. The paprika contributes color and mild sweetness, while the red pepper adds a soft, restrained heat without overpowering a dish.
This seasoning is intended for recipes where a light pepper kick is desired but full cayenne or hot red pepper would be too strong. The blend disperses evenly, making it easy to control heat while adding flavor and color at the same time.
Mild Red Pepper Seasoning works well in sauces, soups, gravies, egg dishes, rubs, and seasoning mixes. It is commonly used in breakfast dishes such as eggs, quiches, and sausage gravies, as well as in poultry, vegetables, and lightly spiced sauces where balance matters more than heat.
Compared to cayenne or hot red pepper, this seasoning provides noticeably less heat and a smoother finish. Compared to paprika alone, it adds a mild pepper bite while retaining paprika’s color and body.
Ingredients: Paprika and Ground Red Pepper.

McCormick Mild Red Pepper Seasoning 5lbs 2.27kg - FAQ
- Q: How hot is Mild Red Pepper Seasoning?
- A: Mild Red Pepper Seasoning has a low heat level. It adds warmth and pepper flavor without the sharp heat of cayenne or crushed red pepper.
- Q: How is this different from cayenne pepper?
- A: Cayenne pepper is much hotter and used primarily for heat. Mild Red Pepper Seasoning is a blend that adds light heat, flavor, and color, making it easier to use in dishes where strong heat would be overwhelming.
- Q: Can this be used as a paprika substitute?
- A: It can be used in place of paprika when a small amount of heat is desired, though it will be slightly spicier than paprika alone.
- Q: Why not just use less cayenne pepper instead of mild red pepper seasoning?
- A: Using less cayenne reduces heat, but it also reduces flavor and color. Cayenne is primarily a heat-forward spice, so when used in very small amounts it contributes heat without much body. Mild red pepper seasoning is blended to provide pepper flavor, warmth, and red color at a lower heat level, allowing you to season more evenly without the risk of over-spicing. This makes it easier to control flavor in sauces, soups, and egg dishes where consistent, gentle heat is preferred.
