paprika flakes with seeds
Product Description
Paprika flakes with seeds, 160 ASTA
These paprika flakes keep the seeds that fall out of the pod during cutting. The result is a mix of red flakes and pale seeds at 3–5 mm or 9 mm, with the same 160 ASTA color value as the seedless flakes.
Heat is below 500 SHU, so the seeds change the look and texture, not the pungency.
