Poppy seeds are becoming increasingly popular in healthy recipes. \u00a0<\/strong>Poppy seeds are extracted from inside the poppy capsule<\/strong> and have high nutritional value, as they\u2019re rich in fibre, proteins, vitamins, minerals and fatty acids<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll share their properties and benefits, as well as ways to use them in the kitchen<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Properties of poppy seeds<\/h2>\n

Poppy seeds are black in colour, very small in size and taste similar to walnuts or almonds. They\u2019re a source of vegetable proteins and mainly unsaturated fats<\/strong>. In addition to healthy fats and vegetable proteins, they contain a high proportion of fibre, vitamin E<\/strong>, vitamin B, potassium, calcium of vegetable origin and plant sterols<\/strong> or phytosterols. These properties make poppy seeds a quality source of energy that enriches our diet; one that\u2019s widely consumed by vegans.<\/p>\n
