The pending stormy weather translates to "hunker down and cook" at the farm. Smoky Paprika is one of my favorite spices to experiment with so when I find a recipe that features this beautiful addition, well now.....I just have to try it!
White Bean and Chorizo Stew
Chef Richard Garcia of Boston's 606 Congress uses smoked Spanish paprika in his signature White Bean and Chorizo Stew. Garcia relies on this spice for a deep, smoky flavor that complements Spanish chorizo sausage.
