Nichola knows a Turkish spice but not sure what it is in English. Her other half thinks paprika. Heather is excited that it is paprika, as this means she was previously correct. Nichola asked Heather if paprika was hot, Heather replied that she didn't know whether it was hot.
A whole discussion has taken place about paprika, between two women who don't know between them if it is hot or not.
Pulbiber is made from dried chillies, the strength varies with the type of chilli used.
Paprika is made from dried and crushed red peppers, you can get hot (aci), mild (acisiz), or sweet (tatli).
Bim do a good, reasonably priced Pulbiber.
I use Pulbiber all the time, it is great sprinkled over salads, soups, jacket spuds, in fact anything where you would use salt and pepper if you like spicy food.
It also makes a great marinade for steak, chicken, etc. when mixed with olive oil, salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
