The Turks brought paprika to Hungary during their occupation in the 16th century, as they had already been using it in their cuisine. Paprika, derived from Capsicum peppers, became popular in Hungary due to its vibrant color and flavor, which complemented traditional Hungarian dishes. Over time, it became a staple ingredient, deeply embedded in Hungarian culinary culture, particularly in dishes like goulash and stews. The spice's introduction significantly influenced Hungarian gastronomy and identity.

Where does the spice paprika come from?

Paprika originally comes from Hungary (But was brought to Hungary in the 17th century by the Turks) But the Turks got it from the Spanish who got it from the South and Central American Indians in the 15th century. They are a New World plant and food as are the rest of most of the chili or other peppers in the world. In fact, the Mayans were smoking (as in drying, not inhaling), jalapeños, called chipotle, a Nahuatal Indian word, when Columbus hit the coast line.
