Poppy seed paste, also known as mohn, is a common ingredient in Ashkenazi Jewish[1] pastries and desserts. It is made from ground poppy seeds and additional sweeteners. Examples of pastries featuring the filling include mohn kichel, babka, and, most famously, hamantashen. In Jewish cuisine, the filling is traditionally referred to as mohn, the word for poppy in both Yiddish and German.[2] Poppy seed-filled pastries are particularly associated with the holiday of Purim.[2]
