When the garlic is ready (about 30 minutes later, give or take 10 minutes depending on how cautious you’re being), add the salted chilies. Stir and let fry gently for another 5-10 minutes, again watching closely so as not to burn the oil and spices.


The choice between hot sauce and chili sauce is ultimately a matter of personal preference and depends on your desired heat level and flavor profile. Why not experiment with both to find your personal favorite?

Paprika originates from central Mexico, but it was brought to Europe in the 16th century by Christopher Columbus. Sometime after, paprika made its way to Hungary, and has been a staple food there ever since. Paprika is the Hungarian word for pepper. It’s the country’s national spice, and they spoon it on to pretty much any dish you can think of – from soups, stews and sauces to rice and eggs. It plays the starring role in Hungary’s most celebrated dish – goulash (a warming winter stew made from red meat, onions, potatoes and vegetables, served over egg noodles).

Overall, the two main types of paprika, sweet and hot, offer different flavor profiles and heat levels, allowing cooks to choose the right type of paprika to enhance the taste of their dishes. Whether adding a touch of sweetness or a fiery punch, paprika is a versatile spice that can elevate a wide range of recipes.
