The seeds are used either whole or ground to paste before adding to the dishes. When toasted, it gives a nutty aroma. Seeds are pressed to extract poppyseed oil. Poppy seeds are ground to paste to thicken sauces, curries, stews and soups. Using it moderately enhances the flavor of any sweet or savory dish.
