Paprika is the name for not only peppers but the powder.
It can be made with any pepper or blend of peppers you want.
It can be sweet hot smoked pungent or a blend of the above.
Some is made with the seeds ground up and some has the seeds removed.
What we see as Hungarian Paprika in the states is a joke compared to what they have over there.
For many people here in the US the only thing they do with it is sprinkle in on deviled eggs once or twice a year.
When I cook with it it is by the hand full.
Many times they make a blend of peppers to get the flavor they want.

I am an absolute fanatic when if comes to paprika chili powders or what ever you want to call it.
It is also one of the reasons I have 65 pepper plants growing.
