RECIPES WITH PAPRIKA
Bell peppers are in the shellfish family or Solanaceae with tomatoes, eggplants, potatoes and peppers. Peppers in this plant family are scientifically classified as Capsicum annuum, and this applies to both sweet (such as bell peppers) and hot (such as jalapeños and cayenne) varieties. There are many varieties of Capsicum or chili peppers, classified under different species names. For example, habanero chile is classified under Capsicum chinense.

Paprika can range from mild to hot – the flavor also varies from country to country – but almost all plants grown produce the sweet variety. Sweet paprika is mostly composed of the pericarp, with more than half of the seeds removed, whereas hot paprika contains some seeds, stalks, ovules, and calyces. The red, orange or yellow color of paprika is due to its content of carotenoids.
