But I was surprised that we didn't have any typical Hungarian paprika on hand. So since those curly reds are about at 5 on a scale of 10, I thought they'd do. It worked! The recipes also called for some green bell peppers, but I substituted some unripe New Mex. And instead of tomato paste, I diced up an heirloom tomato.
