The ASTA index (a measure of colour) of paprika Tap de Cortí is between 130 and 140 ASTAS ground with its seeds that gives to Tap de Cortí vitamin E. This is a natural antioxidant which is good for seasoning typical dishes of the islands but also for Majorcan sobrassada. Furthermore, as Capsicum annuum also contains a high level of vitamin C.
