Paprika & Orange Peel

Paprika is a spice made from ground dried red peppers of the species Capsicum annuum. Orange peel is the outer zest of an orange fruit. Both are used to add flavor and color to foods.

Paprika and orange peel are used as spices and flavorings in a variety of savory and sweet dishes. They can add a mild, sweet, or slightly bitter flavor, as well as a reddish-orange hue. They are often found in sausages, spice blends, marinades, and baked goods.

Paprika and orange peel are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as food ingredients. They are natural sources of vitamins and antioxidants. No specific health concerns are associated with their typical consumption in food. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have not set specific limits for these ingredients as they are considered safe food components.
