Description:

  • Healthiest variant of oil
  • No chemicals used
  • Multipurpose oil
  • Cold-pressed Sesame Oil, also called Nalle Ennai or Gingelly Oil is very popularly used in South India cooking because of its rich aroma and delicious taste.
  • You can have it with your idli or milagai podis, stir-fry veggies, in curries, and for making pickles.
  • This oil is also good for oil pulling to keep your teeth clean and used as a body massage oil for glowing skin. Bio Basics’ Cold-pressed Sesame Oil comes from two sources.
  • One is a organic-certified farmer group and the other is from a certified farmer.
  • The oil is produced in small rotary oil mills where fresh batches are made as and when there is a requirement.
  • The recovery rate is about 35%, which means that one kilo of sesame seeds would give you 350 grams of oil. 
  • In Tamil Nadu, the red or black variety of sesame seeds are commonly used.
  • The colour of the oil can be golden, dark brown and sometimes almost black, depending on the variety of sesame seeds used.
  • Palm jaggery is added to the seeds while grinding them in the rotary mill at a very low speed.
  • This is to prevent the oil from heating up to produce the best quality of sesame oil.
  • Post production, the oil is filtered using a manual filter or gada cloth kept inside the solar facility for the sediments to settle down.
  • This takes 2-3 days.
  • The oil is then poured out leaving the sediment intact.
  • This is the oil that we supply to you - rich, thick in the essential component that is present in the seeds and quite delicious.
  • Once you cultivate a taste for it, it will become your top choice for cooking.
  • Very high in nutrients
  • Can be used to maintain oral hygiene
  • Protects and nourishes the skin
