What is it?

Khus Khus, or Poppy Seeds (Papaver somniferum), are tiny, kidney-shaped seeds derived from the opium poppy. In India, they are widely used for culinary purposes, particularly for their ability to thicken gravies and add a delicate nutty flavour and a creamy texture.

These versatile seeds are a staple in many traditional Indian vegetarian dishes, from rich curries and kormas to delicious sweets and breads. They contribute a unique mouthfeel and a subtle aroma that elevates the overall dining experience.
