Can I Substitute Sweet Chili Sauce For Sriracha?
For big proportions and mild needs: Spicy ketchup
China is famous for its culinary delights, and one of the key ingredients found in many traditional Chinese dishes is dried red pepper pods. These spicy and flavorful pods are used to add heat and depth to a wide variety of dishes, making them a staple in Chinese cuisine.
If you don't have any paprika in the house, you can use any number of alternate spices, as long as you realize that the flavor of the final product won't taste the same as it would with the sweet paprika. Use nutmeg, cinnamon or cloves instead of paprika in a deviled egg or potato salad recipe. Replace the paprika in chili with mace, mustard, garlic powder or cumin, or use ground ginger or black pepper instead of paprika in your favorite fried rice recipe.
