The cooking oil you choose plays a vital role in your family’s health. With so many options available, it’s important to understand the difference between traditionally extracted cold-pressed oils and chemically processed refined oils.
What Are Cold-Pressed Oils?
Cold-pressed oils, also known as wood-pressed or kachi ghani oils, are extracted by crushing oilseeds at low temperatures using traditional wooden presses. This gentle process preserves the natural flavour, aroma, and nutritional value of the oil without the use of heat or chemicals.
The Problem with Refined Oils
Refined oils undergo high-temperature processing and chemical treatment using hexane, bleaching agents, and deodorisers. This strips the oil of natural antioxidants, vitamins, and essential fatty acids. The result is a flavourless, nutritionally empty product with a long shelf life but little health value.
