The poppy seed is very‚ very old. Its tremendous value and myriad uses are noted in several ancient medical texts from cultures dating as far back as 2700 BC‚ beginning in the Mediterranean region. Civilizations such as Egypt‚ Minoan and others from the Bronze Age as well as the ancient Sumerians are all known to have cultivated poppy for its valuable oil‚ calming properties‚ culinary uses‚ and more.
Teeny-tiny poppy seed are harvested from the dried seed pods of the lovely Papaver somniferum‚ aka the opium poppy. The seed can be white‚ bluish-black or black; each variety bears an edible oil that contains Vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) and other tocopherols belonging to the Vitamin E family and phytosterols which are plant compounds known to boost health and immunity. The seeds are either ground or used whole in a variety of culinary delicacies but are especially popular in baked goods. Although treasured around the globe‚ the seeds are grown in only 15 countries; Spain‚ Czechia and Turkey are the largest producers.
In India‚ a variety of white poppy seed is readily available‚ although it is far less common in Western countries. Indian cuisine uses the seed in spicy‚ sweet and savory dishes and is commonly found in breads or mixed with potatoes‚ rice‚ vegetables‚ sugar‚ butter‚ coconut and chili peppers. One particularly famous way to enjoy poppy seed in India is in a variety of blissfully delicious beverages including rose milk‚ almond milk‚ Thandai (a cooling drink made from watermelon seeds‚ rose petals‚ saffron‚ spices‚ poppy seed‚ milk and sugar)‚ sharbat (made from fruits and flower petals) and khus-khus (aka poppy seed in Hindi) which is a warming‚ winter beverage made from poppy seed‚ almonds and milk).
Poppy seed is sometimes ground and made into paste with all kinds of tasty ingredients including sugar‚ milk‚ butter‚ rum‚ lemon and lime zest‚ raisins and other dried fruits‚ cream‚ chopped nuts and spices like cinnamon‚ nutmeg and ginger. The paste is used as a delicious filling for pastries‚ donuts‚ muffins‚ rolls‚ croissants and cakes. Regardless of how you wish to use poppy seeds‚ bear in mind that‚ whether white or dark‚ they are all interchangeable and equally nutritious and delicious; each variety will add just the right poppy-touch to all of your wonderful recipes.
