Poppy seeds rule. We love to put them in pastry here in Germany, too. And they do have a taste to them, it’s subtle and not too sweet.

Czech Blue Poppy is a Czech variety of poppy with a very low alkaloid content! This variety is suitable for food use, with specific taste, which has a long tradition in Central Europe. It has a protected geographical indication in the EU too. Poppy is especially rich in iron, zinc, calcium, potassium, magnesium atc., and healthy fats. It is used whole (sprinkling bread) or ground (fillings, etc.). Watch out for pot-bellied poppies and mixtures with other (!) imported varieties. In some countries, they do not know the food poppy, they live in the error that it contains opiates, as they are used to with the technical poppy in their country. The Czech Republic is the largest producer of edible poppy seeds in the world. Most of the poppy grown is exported. The value of exported Czech poppies exceeds the profit from the export of Czech hops.

Ground poppy is more like a paste, unlike poppy used for sprinkling houska or rohlik. Makový závin (štrůdl) with plums is one of the greatest delicacies here - you may get it on some of Masopust markets here.

Poppy seed must be grounded, both for kolace or noodles. Othewise it is crunchy but have no taste, as you Jen said. On the market is food mak, with negligible content of opioids. Pharmacy kind of mak is also produced in CZ but strictly controlled.

Hi, Polish by birth, Czech by choice here :) so after living here for 5 years I still mix the language sometimes and sometimes I end uo saying very nit intended things. And not just the old classics (szukać), but last time I had an appointment with my doctor and wanted to describe shortness of breath. In Polish you'd say "duszno mi". Well, it's not something I say everyday, so I didnt remember how it was in Czech and just used the czech sounding version of the Polish expression. The expression on the doctors face when I stated I often feel "dusno". She then explained to me what it means and we had a good laugh about it. Btw, if you're looking for a good scary and gloomy Slav crimi try "Wataha". It' all about all woods in desolated mountains in winter. Its on hbo with eng subbies:)

I grew up on Polish TV, in late 80s they already got some Disney shows and weve been close enough to border to catch their TV signal so i can confirm Polish is easy to understand for Czechs, we just had to got used to it, really try and listen to it in the beginning, and in no time one can understand it almost as easily as Slovak, and i worked with Polish in mixed office and they can understand Czech too, one just need to be loud and assertive enough and they give up pretending they cant.

You don't really need to fight the algorithm when it comes to me. I am always alerted by the bell that there is a new episode. I really like the outsider's view of Czech culture, even if you adopted a lot of it to your everyday life already :) Anyway, on poppy seeds: I really like their taste, and they can be good both with sweet and salty food. I had some kaiser rolls with poppy seeds in the past, and I ate it with cheese and it was delicious. But most of the time it comes in sweet pastry, making it a bit more unhealthy because of all the sugar. However, it can be really tasty whether you eat koláč, závin or rohlíček, the key (for it to be noticeable in the taste) is that there is a lot of it. You won't be able to tell from just a few grains of poppy. As for the opium, it's mostly found in the green part of the plant, and mostly before the poppyhead is ripe. Poppy seeds are no drug :)

15:11 Yes, we can. Also, Poland has a thingy for poppy seed based desserts as well.

Ground poppy seed with sugar put on noodles is delicious. You have to try it Jen! You may not like it right away though. I am Czech, but live in Canada for over 25 years and when I was very new here someone gave me a peanut butter toast. I absolutely hated it, but then I gave it a few more tries and I got obsessed with peanut butter.

You do realize that the poppy seeds are ground when you put them on pasta or šišky, right? Therefore, there is no crunch. :) BTW, absolutely the best. In addition, I want to add that Czech poppy seed pastry tastes completely different than what you buy in the USA, so maybe, give it a try. My favorite 3-combination. Don't worry, you won't get high. I actually never knew that this was a problem until I was in the States, where everybody was - OMG, OMG now you will test positive. I have been eating this since I was 2. But, then again, you need to either make it home or buy something better than what comes out of the plastic bag in Albert. Also, the picture of "sádlo" that you had there is not sádlo, but margarine, it is rostliný tuk. I guess it is supposed to be used in the frier. If I saw that I would probably think - a kid was sent to the store to get it, stopped there and forgot he had it, later was running back. Or somebody repacked the bag to carry it home and forgot, another option is a foreigner bought it, thinking it was something else. And falling bag with meat, I get it. I did this myself - not with meat, the only difference I live in a house, so it will mostly fall in my backyard. There is never enough room in the fridge, especially if you have people coming and preparing a large meal.

poppy seeds are the best! jen, you have to try makový koláč

The game changer about poppy seeds is that the Czechs CRUSH them (they mill/grind them in a grinder) which is how they extract the flavor from them. Without THAT process the poppy seeds would be useless for the pastries they're used in. And that procedure makes the poppy seeds SOOO flavorful. With a little license, it's like the difference between peanuts and peanut butter, or the difference between olives and olive oil.

@DreamPrague I'm one of the few Czechs who don't enjoy poppy seeds, it's my least favorite filling among the usual koláč-fillings, but I quite like koláč with poppy seeds and plums - if you won't find poppy seed pastries tasty, try this one, you might like it. It's common in many bakeries.

A dry February was invented for Praguers. In Moravia, we know that the wines are in February matured enough in barrels and can be bottled now. Which is the first serious decision point about their future - and, of course, you can then buy the wines from last year.

Hello, my favorite food is noodles with poppy seeds or potato gnocchi (škubánky) with poppy seeds... And what did I have for breakfast today? Yes! Bun (šáteček) with poppy seeds! But be careful, the poppy seeds must first be ground in a grinder and then added to pasta or buns. A certain amount of sugar is added to the ground poppy depending on how sweet you like it. Not sugar "krystal"! But fine sugar "moučka". A bit of knowledge: However, there is very little morphine and codeine in the edible poppy grown in the Czech Republic. Decree No. 399/2013 Coll.[10] allows a limit of 25 mg of morphinan alkaloids per 1 kg of poppy seed. So in order to feel the effect of the morphine in the poppy, you would have to eat such a quantity that the amount of poppy would kill you before you would feel the first effect of the drugs... 🙂

Try the poppy seed kolac from tesco. It might not sound like it, but theirs is the proper poppy seed filling.

Regarding the poppy seeds debate. I work in a supermarket (Lidl) in the center of Prague. Often times in the baking section of the store no less. So I do sometimes get asked what the various poppy seed flavored products taste like and I am always at a loss. My best explanation is they taste a bit sweet, but really I always just took poppy seed desserts as a fact of life. Only recently, because of my interactions with tourists, did I find out that poppy seeds are pretty exclusive to Czechia. I mean everyone likes to boast about our beer consumption, which is large on per capita basis. But doesn't even make the top 10 when we account for the total sum. However Czechia is actually like the largest nation in both poppy seed production and consumption. Not every year, but for such a small country I felt like this fact should be way better known than it is. PS: poppy seeds with butter, sugar and unsalted pasta are one of those dishes that you wouldn't try on your own accord, but since it's one of the meals that gets rotated as a school lunch most Czechs will have tasted it and it's surprisingly very good, although I like the quark variant more. While on the topic I would wholeheartedly recommend "Škubánky s mákem". Not very common meal nowadays, but once again something Czechs will probably eat in the school cafeteria. I don't like sweet meals in general so I can't say I would have them often. But man are they great if done right.

That story with a bag of meat falling from above reminded me of my childhood. When I was little we always had a lot of walnuts from both our grandmothers and we kept them on our balcony. I absolutely hated walnuts, the taste is incredibly disgusting to me. We lived in a panelák in 7th (8th US) floor and there was a pedestrian zone / cyklostezka around 30 meters from our house in the direction of our balcony and sometimes when my friend came over, we would throw the walnuts at the pedestrians bellow. We thought it was very funny how the people were confused what the hell was happening when the walnuts broke around them on the pavement. One time in winter my friend was over and because there were no walnuts, we were throwing potatoes. At one point, I threw a big potato at a girl and her mother who were riding bikes in a direction perpendicular to us. They stopped, got down from their bikes and looked around confused. Then, the girl walked few meters off the pavement into the grass, she picked up her hat from the grass, shook out something from the hat, put it on and they went on their way. Only at that moment I realized I actually shot the hat off her head with the potato while they were riding on a bike. Few centimetres lower and something terrible could have happened. Needless to say we never tried to throw anything off the balcony again.

Potatoes! You might have really hurt her! I'm impressed that she shook it off and kept going. :)

Wow, I love that couch. Where did you get it?

Real czech citizen, when he dont want alcohol. He will drink Kofola. But not non alcoholic beer.

Jen, měla bys ochutnat makový koláč! Je to fakt moc dobré a nemá to nic společného s opiem 😀

Yeah poppy seeds pasta is something you gotta grow up on to like it 😅

CREMATOR (1969) is czech noir masterpiece. MUST WATCH! Make a review like Cozy Dens, please.

I don't do any New Year resolutions either - why do it on this artificial date? if I want to change something, start any day of the year

OMG you need to try koláč or závin with poppy seed. It is ground poppy seeds with sugar and it tastes nothing like whole seeds. Same with nudle s mákem. It forms this sweet paste with butter, It is traditional kid's food. If kids like it right away, you can be sure it is not repulsive,

Okay. I'm going to make it. Video to come ;)

Miluju všechno makové. Když jsou na výběr koláčky tvarohové povidlové jablečné ořechové nebo makové vzdy si vyberu mák.Nemohla bych žít v Americe protože tam nemají makové pečivo 😂 Mimochodem v životě jsem neslyšela o něčem takovém jako je suchý leden 😊

Many Czechs claim it´s easy to understand Polish. I am Czech, honestly- I don´t think it´s that simple. Many words mean something different even though they sound similar and it took me a few years of my ex-sister-in-law talking Polish to get the hang of it... Oh, Tatras are pretty. Go to Roháče. :) in summer. Not so crowded and so beatiful. Bare and charming.

Když si dávám předsevzetí , tak kdykoliv v průběhu roku . Pokud se nepovede , tak ho můžu lehce restartovat a nemusím s ním čekat na Nový rok , nebo jiné významnější datum . Takto bych si asi nikdy nic nesplnil .

Still zero SuperThanks buttons here. It looks like I will have to buy a VPN in spite of I never feel any need for it :)

Staré dobré nudle s mákem😂, Jen zkus je ochutnat, není to tak špatné❤

The best thing about the trams is the fact that the count is setup like a sports score. You are not only counting how many people were killed by the tram, but also how many trams were killed by collisions with a human. Curiously, the later seems to just stay at zero. So maybe don't walk into it's way, you are not gonna win that match-up. Absolutely hilarious black humour and very Czech. 😀

Honza and I are rolling on the floor reading this.

Jen, come on, we don't put Poppy seeds in everything. I don't like it and I am Czech. We are just one of the few countries who use it when making food. (Koláč with plum butter is a lot better, give it a try).

Hi just a quick question, did you stop wearing shoes immediately when you moved to Czech? I live in Ireland and I wear shoes in my house. And regarding mák cesi ho maji hrozne radi, zadne drogove zazitky z toho nemame 😂😂😂😂

What happened to content in Czech?

Good point and a perfect example of why Czechs don't do new year resolutions - they're broken as soon as they are pronounced. 😜 Cheers to Czech pragmatic pessimism aka realism! 😆

It will be forthcoming! Some people complained that they want content in English, so I will do a mix.😬

7:45 it may be the "more pragmatic" reason... but also, if you really want to change somethig, why would you wait for new year? You dont need "new year resolution", you can just stop or start doing whatever you want whenever you feel like it. Do you want to stop smoking in april? Welp, stop in april. Do you want to start going to the gym in october? Do it in october. There is absolutly no reason to start with these goals specificaly only at new year. And because new year is only 1 day out of 365, there is less then 0,3% chance that you start with the resolution on new year and over 99,7% chance that you will start with the resolution on any other day. I think it is not pesimistic or "more negativ" - I would say that not limiting ourselfs specificaly to new year is actualy possitive and give us more options and higher chance that we achieve the goal.

Wait till you relise, that poppy seeds doesn't have any drug effect. (I don't really like them, but they have very specific taste.)

Yikes. All this tram talk scares me. Where and how does one cross a street to avoid this? Are crosswalks just a suggestion? Planning a trip this fall and want to be entirely prepared! 😊

Crosswalks are for crossing the street but a tram has the right of way even on a pedestrian crossing. A pedestrian has the right of way on a crossing just with cars.
