| Nigerian pepper is most likely the same as Guinea pepper, also known as African pepper or grains of paradise. It has been, for a long time, appreciated by the Africans, who had learned to use it long before the hot pepper was brought from Americathe Americas. They used it to season their soups, sauces and other dishes of breathtaking pungency. Especially that the spice was first roasted for an even hotter flavour. {{...}} Coming back to the paprykarz [PS2], the mysterious spice is probably a mixture of Guinea pepper and paprika.

It's a spice obtained from a plant which is more closely related to cardamon and ginger than to pepper and whose scientific name is ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aframomum_melegueta Aframomum melegueta]''. Now, if you're thinking that "''melegueta''" sounds strangely familiar, then you're right. We've just talked about piri-piri, which is known as "''''pimenta malagueta'' in Brazil. How come two quite unrelated spices have almost identical names? Well, for the same reason both ''Capsicum'' and ''Piper'' plants are called "pepper" in English. It's New World spices being named by Europeans after similarly pungent, but more familiar Old World spices. For centuries, many spices were not only used, but also named interchangeably.

And so, PS2, a Polish canned spread inspired by a Senegalese dish, but named after a Hungarian stew, was made from scraps of Atlantic fish, Bulgarian tomato pulp and seasoned with ''melegueta'' a.k.a. Guinea or Nigerian pepper, as well as with ''malagueta'', introduced by the Portuguese from the Americas to Mozambique… It would be hard to find a more cosmopolitan food than this fish paste , which somehow only tastes good when you're spending your time outdoors.
