A couple of teaspoons of paprika to start with, and see if that suits your taste. Hope that works, PaulineHappy Retiree's Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614074474795791475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386723495133646027.post-85411181052820152872020-07-08T16:00:25.278+10:002020-07-08T16:00:25.278+10:00Thanks Tandy.

I often do another little slash before baking. I hope things improve for you soon.Happy Retiree's Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614074474795791475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386723495133646027.post-73199802272169646672020-07-07T23:43:27.070+10:002020-07-07T23:43:27.070+10:00Can I ask what substitutes for chorizo sausage in ...Can I ask what substitutes for chorizo sausage in this recipe?

I actually did bake something the other day which was a sourdough banana bread loaf which was quite nice but I had to put half of it in the freezer with just the two of us here. Seeing as toilet paper is becoming scarce down south once again due to panic buying I hope Queenslanders are sensible and don't empty the supermarket shelves once again.
