On this page, you'll find Austrian poppy seed oil from the Gressl family's poppy seed farm. It's located in Ottenschlag in the Waldviertel region, about 110 km from Vienna, nestled in their own poppy fields.
We're very familiar with the poppy farm, and previously we had to pick up our ordered goods directly from the farm. We've been purchasing products from the Gressl family for nine years, including their popular poppy honey.
We can offer you the following options:
- Grey poppy seed oil: Pure, cold-pressed poppy seed oil from the first pressing, completely natural; the mild, delicate poppy flavor pairs perfectly with salads, raw vegetables, and pasta dishes.
- Basil poppyseed oil: Pure, cold-pressed poppyseed oil from the first pressing, completely natural and refined with basil leaves; the delicate basil aroma pairs perfectly with mozzarella (instead of imported olive oil), tomato salad, and Mediterranean dishes.
Poppy seed oil should also be considered as an ingredient in spreads. Generally speaking, its valuable ingredients are only preserved when used cold, without heating.
The tradition of poppy cultivation in the Waldviertel region dates back to the Middle Ages. Documents from Zwettl Abbey dating back to 1280 document the monks' cultivation of poppies. Then, as now, poppy is the basis for the active ingredient morphine , which is used to treat pain, anxiety, insomnia, and other conditions.
Some suppliers therefore claim similar effects for poppy seed oil. However, these effects are not proven by research and should not simply be presented as truth. What is true, however, is the high vitamin content (see nutritional table in the photo) and the fact that poppy seed oil tastes really good. In our opinion, it tastes even better than olive oil, which is often perceived as bitter. And of course, by purchasing Waldviertler poppy seed oil, you also avoid the high risk of buying cheap oil substitutes or other fake products from abroad.
