Description
Pimentón de la Vera (DOP) — oak-smoked paprika from the Vera valley of Extremadura — is one of the most distinctive spice ingredients in European cooking. Its specific character (smoke from oak-smoking the dried peppers before grinding, combined with the specific capsicum varieties of the region) produces a flavour that cannot be replicated by unsmoked paprika or any other smoked spice.
