Black Whole Poppy Seeds — Product Details

What Are Black Whole Poppy Seeds?

Black whole poppy seeds are small oil-rich seeds commonly known as khashkhash (خشخاش). In cooking, they are valued mainly for their texture, aroma and mild nutty taste. Unlike ground poppy seed paste, whole seeds can be used directly as a topping or incorporated into recipes where a subtle crunch is desirable.

How to Use Black Poppy Seeds in Cooking

• Bakery: Sprinkle over breads, buns, rolls, crackers and pastries before baking.
• Desserts: Add to suitable halwa, kheer, barfi and other traditional preparations.
• Fillings: Grind or soak when a recipe specifically calls for a poppy-seed paste or filling.
• Savoury recipes: Use in selected gravies, sauces or spice blends according to the recipe.
• Texture: Use whole when you want visible seeds and a light crunch.

Black Whole Poppy Seeds Preparation Tips

For recipes that require a paste, follow the recipe's soaking and grinding instructions. For topping applications, the seeds can generally be used directly after checking and cleaning them as appropriate. Avoid overheating them during roasting because their delicate oils can affect flavour if they are overcooked.

Storage & Freshness

Store black poppy seeds in a clean, airtight container in a cool, dry and dark place. Keep them away from moisture, heat and direct sunlight. For longer storage, follow the packaging guidance and use clean, dry utensils to reduce moisture exposure.
