What Is Cold Pressed Oil?
Cold pressed oils are extracted from seeds and nuts using a mechanical press without high heat or chemical solvents, so more natural flavour and nutrients are retained compared to refined oils.
Cold Pressed vs Refined Oil
- Process: Cold pressed uses slow mechanical pressing, while refined oil uses high heat and chemicals to increase yield and shelf life.
- Nutrition: Cold pressed oils keep more Vitamin E, antioxidants and natural plant compounds that support heart and overall health.
- Flavour and aroma: Cold pressed oils have a stronger natural smell and taste, which can enhance traditional Indian recipes.
Key Health Benefits of Cold Pressed Oils
- Rich in healthy fats: They provide monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats that support heart health when used in moderation.
- Natural antioxidants: Compounds like Vitamin E help fight free radicals and may support skin and hair health.
- No added chemicals: Cold pressed oils avoid chemical refining, bleaching and deodorizing, so you avoid extra additives.
Best Uses in Daily Indian Cooking
Cold pressed groundnut oil is suitable for everyday South Indian cooking like sambar, poriyal and frying, while cold pressed coconut oil works well for gravies, idli podi and traditional sweets.
