Substitues for allspice and paprika?!


Question: Substitues for allspice and paprika!?
I don't know why or how but these two spices are missing from my cupboard!. I am making a cabbage soup!. Any ideas for seasoning substitutions!? or what might go well in the soup!. I have bay leaf and most of the typical spices!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
You could probably get away with substituting nutmeg for the allspice as long as the amount needed is small!. As for paprika, I would suggest cumin!. The problem you will have is that allspice and paprika have subtle complexities that would be hard to mimic with substitutions!. The best bet would be to bite the bullet and grab a small pot of both at the store!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
