Paprika is known for its smoky and sweet taste, and is commonly used in Hungarian and Spanish cuisine as a seasoning for stews, soups, and meat dishes. On the other hand, bell peppers have a mild and slightly sweet taste, and are often used in salads, stir-fries, and as a topping for pizzas and sandwiches.
Walk into any grocery store or up to a vegetable stand in just about any place in the world and there, among other local fruits and vegetables, you will find bell peppers. Depending on the country they may be called by different names such as sweet peppers, paprika, capsicum, or simply and plainly, as peppers. Besides their name, bell peppers also differ in color. Most of us are familiar with the green, orange, yellow, and red varieties but there are also purple, brown, and very pale yellowish colored bell peppers.
