Understanding Wood Churned Cold Pressed Oils

Wood churned cold pressed oils are produced through an ancient method of extraction using a wooden churn or “ghani.” This slow and gentle process involves crushing oilseeds between wooden wheels or churns without applying heat or chemicals, ensuring the oils retain their maximum nutritional value and natural essence.

The Traditional Wooden Churn Process

The wooden churn, often powered manually or by animal-driven mechanisms, slowly grinds oilseeds like sesame, groundnut, mustard, and coconut. This method avoids heat that can degrade essential fatty acids and antioxidants, making it vastly superior to conventional oil extraction methods.

Why Cold Pressing Matters

Cold pressing preserves all beneficial compounds such as vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, and antioxidants. In contrast, heat or chemical processing often destroys these nutrients and introduces harmful residues.

2. Chemical-Free and Pure

Without any refining chemicals or solvents, these oils are pure, allergen-free, and safe for sensitive individuals.

3. Rich Flavor and Aroma

The slow wooden churn process preserves the natural aroma and rich flavor of the oils, enhancing culinary experiences.

4. Heart-Healthy Fats
