Farmers tried to grow Hungarian paprika plant in a few other parts of the world—Spain,
California, the Yakima Valley of Washington and St. James Parish in Louisiana. But thanks to the
unique climate, none matches the flavor of the Hungarian-grown powder. In two regions of
Hungary (Szeged and Kalocsa) a 5-month growing season with the perfect alternation of warmth,
sunshine and rain with a total of 2900°C yield the perfect paprika pepper. Nowhere else has such
conditions. When the region has only 2700°C total heat, the paprika crop is mediocre. People talk
about paprika in that region, like they talk about wine in the Bordeaux region of France.
