Groundnut Oil - 1 litre

Groundnut Oil, or Moongphali ka Tel, is one of India’s most traditional and beloved cooking oils. At FarmLokal, our Groundnut Oil is extracted using the Cold-Pressed (Kacchi Ghani) method. Most commercial groundnut oils are "refined" using high heat and chemical solvents like hexane, which strip the oil of its natural nutrients and distinctive nutty flavor. Our cold-pressed process ensures that the oil is extracted at room temperature, preserving the delicate antioxidants, vitamins, and the authentic aroma of roasted peanuts. When you open this bottle, the smell takes you back to the traditional oil mills of our ancestors. Health-wise, Groundnut Oil is an excellent source of Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that protects the heart and skin from oxidative stress. It is rich in Monounsaturated Fatty Acids (MUFA) and Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFA), which help in maintaining healthy cholesterol levels and supporting heart function. A unique feature of groundnut oil is its high content of Resveratrol, the same antioxidant found in grapes that is known for its anti-aging and anti-cancer properties. It is a stable oil with a high smoke point, making it perfect for the high-heat demands of the Indian kitchen, from sautéing sabzis to frying puris. By choosing FarmLokal’s Cold-Pressed Groundnut Oil, you are removing "dead" refined fats from your diet and replacing them with a "living" oil that nourishes your cells and enhances the flavor of your home-cooked meals.
