Cold-pressed groundnut oil is extracted from groundnuts using a slow, low-RPM pressing process rather than conventional solvent extraction and extensive refining. Our groundnut oil is unrefined and cold-pressed without preheating, helping retain the natural aroma, flavour, and characteristic properties of the groundnuts.
Refined groundnut oil, on the other hand, typically undergoes multiple processing stages such as degumming, neutralization, bleaching, winterization, and deodorization to produce a highly uniform, clear, and neutral-tasting oil.
Yes. Our cold-pressed groundnut oil is unrefined, meaning it does not undergo conventional chemical refining processes such as degumming, chemical neutralization, bleaching or deodorization.
Instead, the oil is mechanically extracted from groundnuts and naturally settled and gently filtered to remove coarse particles while retaining its natural character.
Our groundnut oil contains 100% groundnut oil as its ingredient and does not contain added colours, flavours, or preservatives. Unlike chemically refined edible oils, it is not subjected to processes such as chemical neutralization, bleaching, or deodorization. The oil is extracted through cold pressing and then naturally settled and gently filtered.
The natural aroma and flavour are characteristics of unrefined groundnut oil. Because our oil is not deodorized, we do not intentionally strip away its characteristic aroma to make it completely neutral. The flavour and aroma can also naturally vary slightly between batches depending on the groundnut variety, growing conditions, harvest, and season.
Deodorization is an industrial refining process used to remove volatile compounds responsible for an oil's natural smell and flavour. We choose not to deodorize our cold-pressed groundnut oil because we believe an oil made from a single natural ingredient does not need its characteristic aroma artificially removed simply to make it completely neutral.
Degumming is a conventional oil-refining step used to remove phospholipids, commonly called gums, from crude vegetable oil. Depending on the refining process, water, acids or other processing aids may be used to separate these compounds from the oil. Degumming is primarily done to prepare crude oil for further refining and to achieve a more standardized, refined end product.
Our cold-pressed groundnut oil does not undergo conventional degumming. Since we aim to offer an unrefined, minimally processed oil, we avoid taking the oil through an extensive refining chain simply to achieve a highly processed, standardized product. Instead, our groundnuts are cold-pressed at low RPM, followed by natural settling and gentle filtration to obtain a clean, usable cooking oil while keeping the process as simple as possible.
Winterization is a refining process in which oil is cooled under controlled conditions to encourage higher-melting components, such as certain waxes, to crystallize. These solidified components are then separated through filtration. The primary purpose is to improve the oil's clarity and stability at lower temperatures and give it a consistently clear appearance.
Our cold-pressed groundnut oil is not winterized. We don't deliberately chill and filter the oil simply to make it clear. Since our oil is unrefined and minimally processed, its clarity, colour and appearance may naturally change with temperature and storage conditions. We prefer to retain this natural character rather than subject the oil to additional processing purely for cosmetic clarity.
Unlike highly refined oils, unrefined cold-pressed groundnut oil can naturally show slight variations in colour, clarity, or sediment. This can happen because the oil has not been heavily processed to achieve a perfectly uniform appearance. Temperature can also affect naturally occurring components in the oil, which may cause temporary cloudiness. This does not automatically indicate that the oil is adulterated or spoiled.
A small amount of natural sediment may occasionally be present in pure oils. After extraction, the oil is allowed to settle naturally and is gently filtered before bottling to remove coarse particles. Since our groundnut oil is unrefined and minimally processed, slight variations in clarity or a fine natural sediment may occur. This is a normal characteristic of minimally processed oil and does not necessarily indicate a quality issue.
Clarity is not the same as purity. Refined oils are processed through multiple stages specifically to achieve a more uniform colour, odour, and appearance. Our cold-pressed groundnut oil is intentionally kept minimally processed. Natural variations in colour or clarity can therefore occur depending on the groundnuts, batch, temperature and storage conditions.
Yes. Groundnut oil has traditionally been used in Indian kitchens and is suitable for a variety of everyday cooking applications, including sautéing, shallow frying, roasting, tadka and general cooking.
Cold-pressed groundnut oil can be used for cooking methods that require higher heat. For conscious cooking, use only the quantity required, avoid overheating the oil, and do not repeatedly reuse oil that has already been heated for frying.
Because the oil is unrefined and not deodorized, it can have a naturally characteristic groundnut aroma.
Yes. Groundnut oil and peanut oil refer to oil extracted from peanuts/groundnuts.
Low-RPM pressing allows the groundnuts to be pressed at a slower rate rather than aggressively extracting the oil. Our approach focuses on gentle extraction and minimal processing, helping preserve the natural character, aroma, and flavour of the groundnuts without preheating the seeds before pressing.
Cold pressing refers to the extraction method and controlled processing conditions. Mechanical pressing naturally generates some frictional heat. Our process uses low-RPM pressing with no intentional preheating of the groundnuts, which retains most of its taste, aroma, and nutrients.
Cold-pressed and refined oils are produced through very different processes. Our groundnut oil involves careful sourcing, cold-pressed extraction, natural settling, and gentle filtration, without relying on extensive refining to standardize the oil. This can involve lower extraction efficiency and yield, and draws more attention to the raw material and processing process. The price therefore reflects not just the oil itself, but the quality of raw material, the way it is sourced and produced.
Yes. After extraction, our oil is naturally settled through gravity and gently filtered to remove coarse particles. We avoid excessive processing simply for cosmetic clarity because our aim is to retain the natural character of the oil while providing a clean product
Cold-pressed and refined oils differ mainly in how they are extracted and processed. Cold-pressed oils are extracted from oilseeds and generally undergo fewer intensive refining steps, allowing more of their natural aroma, flavour, and characteristic components to remain. Refined oils, on the other hand, undergo additional processing to standardize their colour, aroma, flavour and clarity.
That said, no cooking oil is a magic health food. What matters most is the overall quality of your diet, the quantity of oil you consume, and how you use and store it. We simply offer an unrefined, minimally processed alternative for those who prefer a healthier approach to their cooking oil.
