Wooden Pressed Mustard Oil (Kachi Ghani) – Black & Yellow Variants

Description

The Liquid Gold of Tradition, Pressed with Time-Honored Craft

Unlock the intense, authentic character of mustard oil as it was meant to be—extracted slowly and patiently using a traditional wooden press, or kolhu. Sourced from select mustard seeds of Rajasthan, our oil is produced using the genuine “Kachi Ghani” cold-press method. The wooden press generates minimal heat, safeguarding the oil’s natural enzymes, essential fatty acids, and the potent, pungent compounds that define its bold personality and golden hue.

This is not a refined, neutral oil. It is a living ingredient with a strong aroma and a sharp, peppery flavor that is the undisputed heart of many regional cuisines and age-old home remedies.

Choose Your Variant:

• 🟡 Yellow Mustard Oil: Pressed from yellow mustard seeds. Slightly milder in pungency with a golden color, making it a versatile choice for daily cooking, tempering (tadka), and sautéing.

• ⚫ Black Mustard Oil: Pressed from darker, robust black mustard seeds. Possesses a deeper, more intense aroma and a stronger, classic pungency. Traditionally preferred for pickling, robust meat curries, and therapeutic massage (abhyanga).

The Wooden Press (Kolhu) Advantage:

• 🪵 Ancient Cold-Press Technique: The wooden kolhu crushes seeds without generating excessive friction heat, preserving the oil’s nutritional integrity.

• 👃 Unadulterated Aroma & Flavor: Delivers the oil’s true, powerful scent and characteristic sharp taste, which is often lost in industrial expeller pressing.

• 🌿 Nutrient-Rich Profile: Retains natural antioxidants, vitamins E & K, and omega fatty acids.

• 🥘 High Smoke Point: Makes it stable and suitable for frying, deep-frying, and high-heat cooking.

Culinary & Traditional Uses:

• The King of Pickling: An essential preservative and flavor agent for achars (mango, lemon, mixed vegetable).

• Flavorful Foundation: Used for tempering dals, curries (especially fish and meat), and vegetable stir-fries.

• Authentic Cooking Medium: Ideal for frying snacks like puris and pakoras, imparting a distinct flavor.

• Ayurvedic Tradition: Valued in external therapies for massage and hair care for its warming properties.

A Note on Purity: This is 100% pure, unrefined, filtered mustard oil. No additives, no mixing, no deodorization. It may settle naturally a sign of its authenticity.
