Description:
- Pure unrefined oil
- Natural and chemical-free
- Many health benefits
- Bio Basics’ Cold-press Groundnut Oil comes from organically grown groundnuts.
- It is a popular cooking oil in Tamil Nadu. Its rich taste is suitable for all kinds of Indian cooking and for making southeast Asian dishes.
- You can use our groundnut oil to make curries, stir fries and deep fried snacks like samosas, pakodas, and vadas.
- Since our cold-pressed oil is thick and packed with flavour, you only need to use half of the usual oil consumption.
- Bio Basics sources cold-pressed groundnut oil from small mills in Sathyamangalam and Coimbatore.
- The organically-grown groundnuts are sourced locally and milled in small rotary mills which has a speed of 15 rpm.
- The oil is extracted at a temperature of 30 degrees centigrade.
- The heat is controlled so that the oil does not lose its properties.
- Once the oil is extracted, it is filtered through a very tight sieve or a gada cloth and kept in the solar dryer or sun for further natural sedimentation to happen.
- Once the sediments settle at the bottom, the oil is poured out.
- Since the oil does not go through any mechanical or chemical filtration, it is thick.
- It is natural to find a bit of sediment in the oil which proves its purity and richness.
- The consistency of the oil varies from time to time because the nature of the groundnut changes from season to season.
- Unlike commercial oils that go through a unifying process, where the oil is refined, bleached and deodorised to give it a glass-like appearance, cold-pressed oil does not go through a filtration process except a normal gada cloth or a very fine sieve.
- It is then left for a while for natural sedimentation to happen.
- The oil is therefore thick and turgid compared to refined oil.
- High content of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants
- Controls Cholesterol
- Boosts immunity
- Controls rise in blood sugar levels
- Controls blood pressure
