What are poppy seeds?

Poppy Seeds

Poppy seeds are tiny, slate blue seeds that come from the opium plant. They have a nutty flavor and can be ground and used as a pastry filling, or added to cakes and cookies for flavor and texture. Do watch out because high consumption of the seeds can cause a drug test to come up with a questionable result!
