Cooking with Love: Real Stories from Bangalore Families Who Switched to Cold Pressed Oils

In the bustling kitchens of Bangalore, something subtle yet powerful is changing. More and more families are embracing the age-old wisdom of cold pressed oils. These oils—extracted naturally using wooden presses without heat—are finding their way back into everyday meals, reminding us of the way our grandmothers cooked: with patience, love, and purity.

Why Families Are Making the Switch

Health-conscious residents of Indiranagar, Whitefield, Jayanagar, and beyond are realizing that not all oils are created equal. Cold pressed oils retain their natural antioxidants, vitamins, and flavor. This has inspired a growing number of households to ditch refined, chemical-laden oils for something more wholesome.

1. The Rao Family, Jayanagar

"We switched to wooden cold pressed groundnut oil six months ago after my father’s cholesterol levels spiked," says Mrs. Rao. “Not only did his health improve, but even our kids noticed that dosas taste better now!”

2. The Iyers, Indiranagar

A vegan family passionate about organic living, the Iyers now exclusively use cold pressed sesame oil for tempering and cold pressed coconut oil for baking. “It’s more than just food,” Mr. Iyer shares. “It’s about returning to roots.”

3. Lakshmi’s Story: HSR Layout

Lakshmi, a home chef running a small weekend food business, switched to cold pressed oils after a customer asked about the oils she used. “Now my sambhar has that authentic aroma my grandmother's cooking had,” she smiles.

What Changes Did They See?

• Improved digestion and reduced acidity
• Better taste and aroma in daily dishes
• Health benefits like balanced cholesterol and better immunity
• Fewer preservatives and zero chemical processing

Popular Cold Pressed Oils Loved by Bangalore Homes

Families prefer different oils for different reasons:

• Groundnut Oil: Ideal for frying and Indian meals
• Coconut Oil: Perfect for cooking, baking, and baby care
• Sesame Oil: Ayurvedic properties and authentic South Indian flavor
• Mustard Oil: Loved by Bengali and North Indian families for pungent flavor

Where Are They Buying It?

Instead of supermarket brands, families are now buying directly from local Bangalore brands like SutraKart that offer wooden cold pressed oils sourced ethically and delivered fresh within a day. These brands have gained trust for their quality, packaging, and authenticity.

Is It Worth the Extra Cost?

Most families agree—it absolutely is. “You pay a little more, but you save on hospital bills and get peace of mind,” says Mrs. Rao. Many have even reported a noticeable reduction in oil consumption, since cold pressed oils are more flavorful and require less for cooking.

Final Thoughts: A Return to Love & Purity

Switching to cold pressed oils isn’t just a dietary choice—it’s a lifestyle change. It’s about cooking with awareness, choosing health over habit, and honoring traditions. For these Bangalore families, it’s about cooking with love—just like their grandmothers once did.
