Our organic poppy seed oil is cold-pressed from freshly harvested organic blue poppy seeds. Cold pressing preserves the typical slightly nutty flavour. The oil is not heated or refined during production, which preserves its valuable ingredients. For example, poppy seed oil contains around 85g per 100g of unsaturated fatty acids, including linoleic acid. The human body cannot produce linoleic acid.
Valuable linoleic acid
Linoleic acid helps maintain normal blood cholesterol levels. A daily intake of 10g of linoleic acid, equivalent to 15g of oil (2 tablespoons of 8g each), will have a positive effect. A varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle should be maintained.
For the cold kitchen
Poppy seed oil has a delicate, sweet flavour and is an edible oil for cold dishes. The pale. yellow oil, full of character, is ideal in dressings, fruit salads, cereals or desserts. It enhances the flavour of the ingredients and gives them a special touch. Poppy seed oil also ensures that the fat-soluble vitamins in the food can be absorbed and utilised by the body. However, it should not be heated to high temperatures as this changes its flavour. Poppy seed oil is particularly good with tomatoes, watermelon and potatoes, but it can also be used to enhance pasta dishes - simply add a little poppy seed oil to the pasta after cooking. Desserts - such as ice cream, yeast dumplings or panna cotta - are enhanced with a few drops of poppy seed oil. Its intense flavour makes it very economical - you only need a small amount of oil.
Poppy seed oil for skin care
Poppy seed oil is also used in cosmetics. You can also use our freshly milled poppy seed oil for skin care. Simply apply to the skin or particularly dry areas and you are done! You can also add a dash of poppy seed oil to your bath water. It goes without saying that poppy seed oil does not contain any opiates (morphine and codeine) and, of course, we at Ölmühle Solling use only organically grown poppy seeds to produce our poppy seed oil.
Usage
Organic poppy-seed oil is ideal for delicious fruit salads and raw dishes. It also tastes great in muesli and fine desserts, making it a favourite in wholefood cuisine. Due to its high polyunsaturated fatty acid content, poppy seed oil should not be used for frying. Poppy seed oil is also used in skin care.

Botanical name: Papaver somniferum L.
Origin:
Blue and grey poppies are cultivated in Turkey, India, Iran, the People's Republic of China and the CIS. The organic poppy seeds we use come from Turkey. Following an old tradition, poppies are currently being grown organically again on a trial basis in the Weserbergland region (on the Ottenstein plateau). The first trials have been successful and we are optimistic that we will be able to source this valuable oilseed from the region in the future.
Certification:
The poppy seeds used for our poppy seed oil come from controlled organic cultivation in accordance with BIO VO 834/2007 and VO 1235/2008.
Poppy seed oil is characterized by a high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids. It is therefore very sensitive to oxidation and not suitable for the preparation of hot dishes such as frying or braising.
Regulation (EC) No. 1924/2006 of the European Parliament restricts nutrition and health claims made on foods. This means that from December 12, 2012, it will no longer be possible to refer to the nutritional and physiological effects of foods and food supplements.
