Their Latin name is papaver somniferum, meaning sleeping poppy. In other words, poppy seeds are said to have sleep-inducing properties. But not only that: their latex is also used in the manufacture of narcotics such as morphine, heroin and opium, making it, of course, one of the most cultivated plants. In our kitchens, the seed adorns pastries, bagels, potato salads and pasta. It’s always good to have some on hand.
