Description
La Dalia Pimentón de la Vera DOP Dulce is a sweet Spanish smoked paprika produced from carefully selected peppers and protected by the Denominación de Origen Protegida Pimentón de la Vera.
The peppers are traditionally dried over smoke from oak or holm-oak wood for approximately 10–15 days. Once dried, they are ground in traditional stone mills to produce a fine, uniform red powder with the characteristic smoky flavour and aroma associated with Pimentón de la Vera.
The Dulce variety offers a mild flavour with barely perceptible heat while retaining the intensity, colour and smoky aroma created by the traditional drying process. Its versatile profile makes it suitable for sauces, stews, rice dishes, soups, marinades and a wide range of Spanish and Mediterranean preparations.
