Cold-Pressed Technology
What is Cold-Pressed Technology?
Cold-pressed technology is a natural method of extracting oil from seeds without the use of heat or chemicals. This method involves crushing the seeds using a mechanical press at a low temperature (usually below 49°C or 120°F). The absence of heat helps retain the oil’s natural nutrients, flavor, and aroma, making it healthier than refined oils.
How It Works
Seed Selection
High-quality mustard seeds are cleaned and dried.
Mechanical Pressing
The seeds are gently pressed using a screw press or hydraulic press to extract oil.
Filtration
The extracted oil is filtered to remove impurities, leaving behind pure, nutrient-rich mustard oil.
Packaging
The oil is bottled without any additives or preservatives, ensuring its purity.
