🌱 Introduction

In every Indian household, oil is not just an ingredient — it’s a tradition. It decides the aroma of your tadka, the texture of your theplas, and the richness of your bhindi fry. But in a market full of refined, over-processed oils, what if we told you there’s one choice that brings both health and heritage together?

That’s where cold-pressed groundnut oil comes in. And when it’s Tejoy, you taste the soul of Gujarat’s soil in every drop.

🔬 What is Cold-Pressed Oil — and Why Does It Matter?

Most commercial oils are refined at high temperatures, which strip away nutrients and flavor.
Cold-pressed oils, on the other hand, are extracted without using heat or chemicals. It’s a traditional process—like the way our grandmothers used to make it—where the groundnuts are slowly pressed at room temperature to retain their:

✅ Nutrients
✅ Natural aroma
✅ Original color
✅ Taste

Think of it like fresh fruit juice vs packaged tetra packs. Cold-pressed oil is closer to nature.

💪 Health Benefits That Make It Stand Out

Here’s why cold-pressed groundnut oil is often called the king of healthy oils:

  1. Rich in Good Fats (MUFA)
    → Supports heart health and helps reduce bad cholesterol.

  2. High in Vitamin E
    → Acts as a powerful antioxidant that improves skin, immunity, and cell repair.

  3. Boosts Metabolism
    → The natural fats keep your body energized without making you feel heavy.

  4. Good for Diabetics
    → Contains compounds that improve insulin sensitivity.

  5. Better Digestion
    → Since it’s free from chemicals and heat damage, it’s easier on your stomach.

    🍳 Perfect for All Indian Cooking Styles

    Whether you're frying bhajiyas for monsoon or drizzling it over your khichdi, cold-pressed groundnut oil does it all. It has:

    🔥 High Smoke Point — which means it doesn’t break down into harmful compounds when heated.
    💛 Neutral, Nutty Flavor — enhances taste without overpowering your dishes.
    🌿 Thick and Aromatic Texture — gives your food a rich, traditional finish.
