McCormick Paprika Smoked 17oz 481g
McCormick Smoked Paprika is produced from Spanish sweet red peppers that are naturally oak wood-smoked before grinding, creating a deep smoky aroma layered over a mild, sweet pepper base. It delivers rich red color and authentic smoke character without added heat, making it a reliable shortcut to slow-smoked flavor in everyday cooking.
Smoked paprika is widely used in Spanish and Southwestern cuisines, where it brings depth to meats, beans, rice, and roasted vegetables. It performs equally well in rubs for chicken, pork, beef, and seafood, and blends smoothly into soups, stews, sauces, and marinades. A light sprinkle adds both color and smoky finish to potatoes, eggs, chips, and grilled dishes.
Because paprika is sensitive to excessive heat, add toward the end of cooking or bloom gently in oil to preserve color and aroma. Its concentrated smoke character means a small amount goes a long way.
Packaged in a flavor-sealed container with dual flip-top lid for shaking or measuring.
