Cold Pressed Oils
Cold Pressed Oils
Pure cold pressed cooking oils, extracted the traditional way in a wooden ghani at low temperatures — so every bottle keeps its natural aroma, nutrients and taste. No preservatives, no chemicals, fresh from source to kitchen in just 8 days.
What Are Cold Pressed Oils?
Cold pressed oils are extracted by pressing seeds slowly at low temperatures — traditionally in a wooden ghani (Lakdi Ghana) — without the high heat or chemical solvents used in refined oils. That low-temperature process is what keeps the oil's natural colour, aroma, antioxidants and flavour intact.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is cold pressed oil?
Cold pressed oil is extracted by pressing seeds at low temperature, without the high heat or chemical solvents used for refined oils. This keeps the oil's natural aroma, nutrients and flavour intact.
Is cold pressed oil better than refined oil?
Cold pressed oil is minimally processed and keeps nutrients and natural taste that refining strips away. Many people prefer it as a purer, more natural everyday cooking oil.
Which cold pressed oil is best?
It depends on the dish: groundnut for deep-frying and tadka, sunflower for light everyday cooking, sesame for tempering, coconut for South-Indian food, and mustard for pickles and regional cooking.
Are cold pressed and wood pressed oils the same?
They're closely related. Wood pressed (lakdi ghana) oil is cold pressed using a traditional wooden ghani. All of Arkka's oils are pressed this low-temperature, traditional way.
