This fine bright red powder with a pleasant smokey aroma owes its exquisite flavour to the way in which the peppers—grown in Spain—are dried. Each pepper is set over oak logs and turned by hand until it is dried to perfection, resulting in a balanced aroma and flavour that adds colour and complexity to many Spanish dishes.
This organic variety offers a smokey-sweet and mild spicy flavour, making it ideal for recreating authentic Mediterranean meat, fish, seafood and vegetable dishes. This versatile spice is perfect for food manufacturers, chefs and caterers to add to organic paellas, tapas dishes as well as stews, soups, sauces, saladdressings, marinades and salsas.
The importer, blender and packer of natural food ingredients supplies new Organic Smoked Spanish Paprika in 25kgs bags with smaller quantities available, depending on requirements. It is available to food manufacturers, wholesalers, cash and carries, bottling and food packing companies, chefs and caterers, as well as to organic food box schemes and online retailers.
Tasneem Backhouse, Sales Director at EHL Ingredients comments: “Tapas is becoming one of the fastest growing cuisines in Britain both within in-home dining and eating out. Capitalising on this trend, many supermarkets have launched their own ranges of Spanish-inspiredready meals and prepared tapas. The rise in popularity of Spanish food has been greatly helped by consumers’ adventurous palates and preferences for stronger flavours and our new Organic Smoked Spanish Paprika will help food manufacturers and chefs to recreate authentic Spanish-style dishes and ready meals.
“Regarding organic foods, the market has experienced a boost in demand since February 2013 with reports showing sales increased 8.4% versus January. Shoppers are increasingly looking for integrity in their food purchases and using online retail and box delivery schemes to source organic spices and foods, as there is often more choice than in the supermarket. In total, we offer around 200 organic ingredients including herbs, spices and seasonings, nuts and dried fruits, beans, pulses, grains, rice and seeds and as well as other ingredients such as honey, flour and fruit concentrates.
“We work with many leading food manufacturers, retailers, wholesalers, brands and foodservice outlets to ensure we are continuously providing our customers with the most innovative and popular natural and organic herbs, spices and food ingredients. We are constantly looking to expand our portfolio to ensure we offer the most diverse choice and we can even work with product development teams to develop custom blends or organic varieties.”
