Sweet paprika ASTA 60 is a ground spice made from dried red peppers. The ASTA 60 value indicates a measured colour strength of 60 units on the ASTA scale. This places it in the range of bright, saturated red powders used where colour matters as much as taste.
The spice has a mild, sweet flavour with no noticeable heat. It works in dishes where a warm pepper note is needed without pungency. Sweet paprika ASTA 60 is common in Hungarian, Spanish and Mediterranean cooking, as well as in spice blends and marinades.
The powder dissolves well in oil, fat and water-based liquids. It is added at the start of cooking to release aroma, or near the end to keep the colour bright. Long heating dulls both flavour and hue, so timing matters.
Its stable colour makes this paprika useful in industrial and professional kitchens. It is used in sausages, cured meats, soups, sauces, snack seasonings and ready meals. Bakeries and cafés add it to savoury pastries, fillings and dressings.
The product comes in sealed packs of 250 g, 500 g, 750 g, 1000 g and 1500 g. Larger formats suit kitchens with regular, high-volume use. Smaller packs fit home kitchens and small food businesses.
Store Sweet paprika ASTA 60 in a closed container away from light, heat and moisture. Keep it dry and use clean, dry utensils to avoid clumping. It suits home cooks, cafés, bakeries and food production alike.
