Roberto's Cuban Seasoning

[lottielady]

Has anyone grown this pepper/chili it is like a very small pattypan squash but and orange red, it is billed as a seasoning pepper but I am not sure what to do with it, has anyone had any success at making their own paprika or similar.
Any suggestions would be gratefully received

I haven't grown the chilli/pepper you describe, but this year I grew Kostadinov chillies which were advertised as being those used to make paprika. They took ages to mill down to a usable particle size once they were dry but the powder has a very nice flavour and is not too hot. I shall grow them again next year.
