About Ground poppy seeds

Ground poppy seeds, derived from the tiny black or white seeds of the poppy plant, add a nutty, slightly sweet flavor and mild crunch to dishes. Commonly used in Middle Eastern, Indian, and European cuisines, they are featured in baked goods, curries, sauces, and fillings. Rich in essential nutrients, ground poppy seeds provide a good source of manganese, calcium, and magnesium, which support bone health and metabolic functions. They are also packed with healthy fats, dietary fiber, and plant-based protein. However, their oil content makes them calorie-dense, so portion control is key. While poppy seeds contain trace amounts of opiates from the seed coating, proper processing ensures safe consumption. Antioxidant compounds in poppy seeds may also promote skin health and reduce oxidative stress in the body. Offering both versatility and nourishment, ground poppy seeds are a flavorful, nutrient-rich addition to a balanced diet.
