Spanish Smoked Hot Paprika ia also known as Pimenton de la Vera, Picante. It is a popular ingredient in many Mediterranean recipes, and essential to Spanish cuisine. The peppers are dried slowly over an oak-burning fire for several weeks. The result is a hot, smoky flavor. Try it in soups or chorizo. Add it to garlic flavored mayonnaise, which can then be used as a spread for grilling chicken or fish. Use it to make your deviled eggs truly sinister.
Anybody who doesn't think the best hamburger place in the world is in his home town is a sissy.
