Poppy Seeds | Aapuguti (loose)

Poppy seeds are tiny, kidney-shaped seeds (approx. 3,300 per gram) derived from the opium poppy (Papaver somniferum), used globally in baking and cooking for their nutty flavor. While they may contain trace amounts of opiates, these generally disappear 20 days after flowering. They are rich in nutrients and used in various culinary applications.
