How to make smoky paprika espuma?
Our favorite Spanish smoked paprika is the key ingredient you will need to make a smoky paprika espuma. The Spanish manufacturers smoke the red bell peppers in smokehouses with Encinas oak wood fire to impart an exquisite smoky taste to the peppers. The most commonly available paprika has no smoked taste, so if you cannot find smoked paprika in supermarkets, you can buy them online.
What variations can you make in the recipe?
Feel free to play with the ingredients in a paprika espuma to suit your taste. Use smoked paprika for a burst of spice, or add some more chili pepper and flakes for a fiery sauce. If you prefer bland sauces, you should use sweet paprika and add any form of chilies or pepper.
What are the different types of paprika?
There are three main types of paprika, and the type you use has a great impact on the final taste of your recipe. You will find sweet, smoked, and hot paprika in the supermarkets.
Whenever a recipe calls for smoked or hot paprika, most people will ignore it and sprinkle the regular paprika present in their pantry. You may consider it necessary to buy three different forms of a single spice. However, it is interesting to know that different varieties make a real difference in the taste and flavor of the final product.
Sweet Paprika:
The regular paprika is made from grinded sweet pepper pods and has a characteristic bright red color. This color variation may range from orange-red to deep-red depending on the original color of the fresh peppers. The flavor profile may range from mild and sweet to hot and bitter.
Sweet paprika enhances the bright color in foods and serves as a garnish over a potato salad or deviled eggs to make the dish more visually appealing. It does not add any heat to your recipe.
Hot Paprika:
This is the typical Hungarian paprika variety which is considered superior to sweet paprika. It adds more than just color. You can add hot paprika to several dishes such as Goulash, stew, or egg noodles.
Smoked Paprika:
Traditionally known as the Spanish paprika, it comes with a characteristic smoky flavor that enhances the palatability of many sauces, soups, and other countless dishes. Using regular paprika instead of smoked paprika in a recipe will make you miss the original smoky flavor intended in the end product.
