Do you use paprika for more than sprinkling on stuffed eggs? Paprika from Hungary and Spain is most famous, but I think most of the paprika sold in the United States comes from elsewhere.
Sure, lots of dishes need paprika. Just tonight, I made Cajun chicken with a generous sprinkling of paprika, onion powder and a few other herbs. Smoked paprika is hard to find in the grocery, but regular paprika is easily available.
Later this week, I’ll use it again when making blackened halibut. Paprika is a versatile spice, it pops up frequently in the meals I fix.
I use paprika for far more than as a pretty garnish. I mostly use sweet and hot smoked paprika in my kitchen.
Chicken paprikash and goulash are some of the few times that I use it as the star seasoning of a dish, but it often is used in various spice mixes that I make (rubs, Cajun seasoning, a dash in fluffy dumplings, gougeres, etc.). Hot smoked paprika is my usual go-to as I like the depth of flavor it imparts to a dish without overpowering the other seasonings that I might be using so long as a light hand with it is used.

I don't make stuffed eggs, but paprika is in pretty heavy rotation in my kitchen. I use it a lot for seasoning whatever meat or fish I'm putting in the air fryer for dinner.
I love the Hungarian Spicy paprika and use it often on breakfast potatoes, fish, chicken and especially when roasting tofu. It adds a great spicy flare to these foods depending on the type of dish that we are cooking.

Don't know about your area but I too used to have difficulty finding smoked paprika which I like. There's a company called Badia that usually has a spice selection in the 'International' section of my local groceries and they usually have smoked paprika.
Yes. On some beef, pork and chicken dishes. In the tomato sauce for bluefish. In stroganoff and goulash soup. Paprika's also nice in a simple vinaigrette.
I use paprika when roasting chicken and turkey. Also on roasted potatoes.
