Even before being domesticated, six to eight thousand years ago, chilis had found a way to spread over more land and proliferate more widely by using birds as their seed carriers. Not only do birds fly and can spread the seeds over long distances but they also swallow the fruit whole, which keeps the seeds intact and allows them to germinate once they are “dropped”.

In summary, turmeric, with its active compound curcumin, offers a range of potential health benefits, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and digestive support, as well as potential benefits for heart health, brain health, and skin health. Ongoing research continues to explore the various ways in which turmeric may contribute to overall well-being.

Another entry on my list that you might not be expecting is liquid hot sauce because, again, the texture is different. But when it comes to heat and color, any liquid hot sauce is a good substitute for paprika.

Hot chili sauce is a type of sauce or condiment made from chili peppers and other ingredients. It is used as a seasoning, marinade, or condiment. Chili sauce originates from Mexico and Central America and has become a staple in many cuisines around the world. Here, we’ll give you a brief history of chili sauce and some tips on how to use it in your cooking.

Both paprika and bell pepper are good sources of vitamins and antioxidants. Paprika is particularly high in vitamin A, while bell peppers are high in vitamin C. However, paprika is often consumed in smaller amounts than bell pepper, so the health benefits may be less significant.

Among the most popular chili powders in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine is the Aleppo chili powder. It's made from Halaby or Aleppo peppers, native to Syria and Turkey, that have been dried and ground.

Aside from making a great replacement for the smoked type, ancho chili powder also makes for a great sweet paprika substitute because of its sweet flavor that is similar to the taste of raisins.

Hot sauce has varying flavors from brand to brand, but overall, it is spicy, smoky, citrusy, a little sweet, and sometimes nutty. If you’re looking for a replacement that mimics paprika’s taste rather than color, hot sauce is your next best pick. This works for soups and stews where you can hide its runny consistency. Add one teaspoon of hot sauce for every one teaspoon of paprika in recipes.

Paprika is typically sold in powdered form, so it doesn’t have a specific size or shape. Bell peppers, on the other hand, can vary in size and shape depending on the variety. Some bell peppers are large and bell-shaped, while others are smaller and more elongated.
