Q. What is the difference between refined and cold-pressed oils?
A. Refined oils are colourless, odourless and flavourless fluids. The regular refined oils are extracted using solvents and grinding at high speed, which can generate heat up to 100°C. This degrades the oil’s taste and nutritional composition. Trans fats are produced in this process, making the refined oils unfit for your heart. On the other hand, our cold-pressed oils are extracted through pressing and grinding of seeds below a temperature of 50°C. Although it is a slow and time-consuming process, they retain their natural flavour, aroma, and nutritional value. They are high in antioxidants and vitamins and contain good fats for a healthy heart.
Q. Why are Anveshan cooking oils expensive?
A. Anveshan offers premium quality oils that are cold-pressed in wooden Kolhu by crushing raw seeds/nuts and forcing the oil through pressure. Our oils are also “First pressed,“ meaning that the seeds/nuts were crushed and pressed only once. The oils are unrefined, unbleached, and, most importantly, natural. When oils are extracted in this way, they retain their genuine flavour, aroma, antioxidants, and nutrients. It does not alter the properties of the oil and make them great for cooking and skincare requirements. Thus, cold-pressed oils cost more but are worth spending on.
