Description
For lovers of spicy food and strong flavors, this small can of spicy paprika is packed with intensity! Freshness is key to the flavor profile of Las Hermanas Pimentòn, made by third-generation family-run company Hijos de Salvador López.
The peppers (all from local farmers in La Vera with a longstanding relationship to the company) are smoked immediately upon picking over indirect-heat oak fires for 10-15 days, and finished over a slightly warmer fire for three additional days. This process takes the ripe peppers to a low percentage of moisture, preserving flavor and color and imbuing them with the classic DOP smokiness. The dried peppers are then ground into a vibrant crimson powder.
