3-Pack of Smoked Paprika
from La Chinata
- Imported from Spain
- A 2.5 ounce can of sweet, bittersweet and hot paprika
- Paprika is one of the most essential ingredients for authentic paella
- Excellent for general cooking to update unique flavors
Pimentón smoked paprika is an essential ingredient for authentic tasting paella. But more than that, you will find this smoked paprika is excellent for general cooking at home. It may be used as a flavoring for potatoes and fish dishes, light stews, sauces, garlic chicken and roasted meats. Each type has a subtly different flavor: sweet, bittersweet, and picante - spicy. If you like to be creative with your cooking, you will find distinct uses for each of the three. Please do not confuse this paprika with the bland paprika you get at the local supermarket -- or even with the traditional Hungarian paprika. Smoked Paprika has a much deeper flavor and is decidedly smoky.The peppers used to produce all three varieties of Pimentón de la Vera are meticulously hand-harvested in early October and sent to warehouses where they are slow-smoked for fifteen days. The whole peppers become saturated with the smoke of smoldering oak logs, adding intense flavor while preserving their natural blood-red color. After being stone-ground into a velvety powder, the pimentón is shipped directly from the La Vera valley to La Tienda to ensure freshness.

MUSTARD SEED, BLACK, 1.25 lb. jar
from Angelina's Gourmet
- Kosher
Mustard (Brassica Nigra) has long been used in culinary creations. Mustard is derived from the Latin Mustum Ardens which means "burning must". This is due to the pungent smell mustard seeds give when pounded. In the Middle Ages, Mustard was ground and added to wine to make an early version of table Mustard. All Mustards derive from 3 members of the cabbage family: Nigra produces black mustard, Juncea produces the brown, and Alba produces the white. Black Mustard seeds are about 2 to 3 mm small and prized for their distinctive flavor. They are commonly used in Indian cuisine. Brown Mustard has a more delicate flavor than black Mustard. It is grown more than the black because its seeds are smaller and easier to harvest. The black and brown have the strongest flavors of the 3 types.

CREAM OF TARTAR, 30 oz. jar
- Kosher
Cream of Tarter is a natural, fine, white powder that is left behind after grape juice has fermented to wine. Cream of Tartar is added to candy and frosting mixtures for a creamier consistency and to egg whites before beating to improve stability and volume. It is also used as the acidic ingredient in some baking powders.
Hot Paprika/Pimenton
from Chinata
- 2.5oz / 70g
- Pimentón de La Vera - Picante
This is the third member of the pimentón triumvirate. Several peppers are milled together to make a decidedly tangy, piquant flavor. We wish the English translation on the tin did not say "hot", because it may bring you visions of flaming spices typical of Mexican or Hispanic cuisine. But this is not the case. Traditional Spanish cuisine never assaults you! On the other hand, if you like lightly spicy sauces for your barbecued meats - this might be a pleasing addition to your palate. We like to add it to our marinade for baby back ribs, or as an accent for roast potatoes and fish dishes. Remember, this paprika is not bland, such as you get at the local supermarket; nor is it more than a distant cousin of traditional Hungarian paprika. What makes all of these varieties distinct is the deep smoky flavor they share.
