Mustard Oil

Description

Cold-Pressed Pungency and Vitality

Aagan Foods Mustard Oil brings the bold, sharp flavors of the village press (kohlu) right to your kitchen. We understand that true mustard oil is defined by its pungency—that signature “zing” that tickles the nose and indicates the presence of active natural compounds. To preserve this, we strictly utilize the cold-pressing method (Kachi Ghani). Unlike industrial extraction which uses high heat and chemical solvents like hexane to extract maximum oil, our cold-press method uses mechanical pressure without heat. This ensures that the oil’s natural antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and distinctive aroma remain intact.

The oil we deliver is deep amber in color and completely free from adulteration with cheaper palm or arginine oils. It is raw, pure, and unfiltered. Mustard oil has long been a staple in South Asian cooking, prized for its incredibly high smoke point. This makes it ideal for the high-heat demands of Pakistani cuisine, such as frying fish, making fritters (pakoras), or preparing the base (tarka) for curries and vegetables.

Beyond the kitchen, Aagan Foods Mustard Oil is a versatile wellness product. It is traditionally used for massage to stimulate circulation and warm the body during winter, as well as for hair care to promote strength and shine. It is also the only choice for making authentic, long-lasting pickles (achar).
