What Is Wood Pressed Oil (Lakdi Ghana)?
Wood pressed oil โ also called lakdi ghana or wooden ghani oil โ is pressed slowly inside a wooden churner at low temperatures. The wood and the slow speed keep the temperature down, so the oil never overheats and keeps its natural aroma, colour and goodness. It's the oldest, purest way to make cooking oil.
