Smoked paprika is a Spanish specialty, made by slowly smoking pimentón (a type of pepper from La Vera, in southwestern Spain) over oak. It's got a round, smoky, woodsy, spicy flavor that's completely different from everyday paprika. Smoked paprika is believed to have originated in Spain. While it is produced in several other countries, including America and Hungary, smoked paprika is usually associated with Spain. Smoked Spanish paprika is classified as mild, medium or hot. Each varies in the amount of heat provided, but all contain the same smoked flavor. The Greedy Ant's version is on the mild side.

courtesy of Lattes & Leggings Don’t let the habanero shy you away from making this soup. Only a half pepper is used to give the chowder just a slight amount of heat. The soup is actually on the milder side. You could add the whole pepper if you want it extra spicy. Make sure to wear gloves when handling hot peppers. Don’t skip out on the lime and avocado. It rounds out the flavors, making it even more delicious. serves 2 to 4 Ingredients 2 ears fresh corn, husks and silks removed 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil 1/2 cup diced onion 1/2 habanero pepper, cored, seeded, and finely diced 1 garlic clove, minced 1/2 teaspoon cumin 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika 1 small sweet potato, cut into 1/2-inch cubes kosher salt 2 cups vegetable broth 1/2 cup milk diced avocado, for serving lime wedges, for serving Directions To char the corn, use tongs and place one ear of corn over a medium-low flame on a gas stove.
