What is Cold/Wood Pressed Oil?

Cold-pressed or wood-pressed oil is extracted by crushing seeds or nuts without applying heat. This traditional method uses a wooden press (known as chekku or ghani) made of stone, where a wooden rod rotates slowly at around 14 RPM to gently press the oil out of the seeds. As this process generates no heat due to low-speed rotation, the oil retains all its natural nutrients, flavor, and aroma. The extracted oil slowly settles over a few days and is then naturally filtered before being packed—without any chemical processing.

Why Choose Cold/Wood Pressed Oils for Cooking?

Using cold or wood pressed oils in daily cooking offers numerous health and environmental benefits:

Nutrient-Rich: Cold/wood pressed oils retain essential nutrients such as vitamins, antioxidants, phospholipids, and micronutrients. This natural nutrition is a healthier choice compared to synthetic multivitamin supplements.

Chemical-Free: Unlike refined oils, cold pressed groundnut oil, cold pressed coconut oil, and cold pressed gingerly (sesame) oil contain no preservatives, additives, or solvent residues. This makes them ideal for everyday use and helps in preventing chronic diseases that may be linked to chemically processed oils.

Authentic Flavor & Aroma: The traditional extraction method preserves the natural taste and aroma of the seeds. Food cooked with cold pressed coconut oil or cold pressed groundnut oil delivers a rich and authentic flavor, enhancing the taste of Indian spices and traditional recipes.

Cold Pressed Coconut Oil: Known for its high lauric acid content—second only to human breast milk—cold pressed coconut oil supports weight loss, lowers cholesterol, and boosts immunity.

Eco-Friendly: The cold pressing process is environmentally friendly. It produces no harmful chemical waste. The only by-product—oilseed cakes—are reused as organic manure or cattle feed.

Bringing Back Our Traditional Wisdom

Cold/wood pressed oils are not a new trend, they are part of our ancient food culture. Unfortunately, they were pushed aside with the rise of modern, refined oils marketed with flashy packaging and lower prices. It’s time we return to our roots and make conscious choices for our health and well-being by switching to cold pressed coconut oil, cold pressed ground nut oil, and cold pressed gingerly oil. Restore your lifestyle, one drop at a time—choose cold/wood pressed oils for a healthier future.
