The benefits of cold pressed groundnut oil, a staple ingredient in every Indian kitchen, are not limited to cooking but also support a healthy lifestyle. It is extracted through a traditional process known as cold pressed extraction, which involves using a wooden press to extract oil from fresh groundnuts. This process retains the oil's natural taste, aroma, and nutritional value, making it a preferred choice for health-conscious consumers.

The benefits of cold pressed groundnut oil are impressive. Its naturally high smoke point allows it to withstand high cooking temperatures without breaking down or losing its nutritional value. This makes it an excellent choice for stir-frying, deep frying, grilling, and baking. It also works wonderfully as a finishing oil, adding a rich, nutty twist to your dishes.
