For a smokier profile, use smoked paprika instead of sweet paprika. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper and red pepper flakes to customize the heat level to your preference. This spice mix is perfect for seasoning chicken, fish, shrimp, vegetables, or adding a kick to soups and stews. Experiment and have fun! Store in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months for optimal flavor.
