Description
Our wood pressed groundnut oil is slow-extracted from premium bold peanuts using a traditional marachekku (wooden ghani) at under 6 RPM — preserving every drop of natural Vitamin E, oleic acid, and resveratrol that commercial refining destroys. Sourced directly from peanut farms in Tirunelveli and Virudhunagar, Tamil Nadu, this oil is unrefined, unbleached, and free from hexane or chemical solvents.
With its rich, nutty aroma and high smoke point of 230°C, it is the ideal everyday cooking oil for deep frying, tempering, and traditional Tamil recipes — from murukku and thattai to sambar and kootu.
How to use
🌟 Why Our Wood Pressed Groundnut Oil Belongs in Your Kitchen
🪵 Authentic Vagai Wood Pressing
Mass-produced refined oils are stripped of nutrients using extreme temperatures and chemical bleaching agents. Our oil is extracted by slowly crushing sun-dried groundnut seeds in traditional Vaagai (Black Siris) wooden ghanis. The wood naturally absorbs excess heat, keeping the extraction temperature low to protect vital antioxidants and heart-healthy fats.
❤️ Heart-Healthy & Nutrient-Dense
Packed with Mono-unsaturated Fatty Acids (MUFA) and plant sterols, pure groundnut oil actively helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels. It is also naturally rich in Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that protects body cells, supports skin health, and boosts immunity.
🔥 High Smoke Point for Perfect Frying
Unlike many unrefined oils, pure wood-pressed groundnut oil has a naturally high smoke point. It won’t break down or release harmful free radicals at high cooking temperatures, making it incredibly safe and efficient for deep frying crispy murukkus, vadas, or traditional pooris.
