What Is Wood Pressed Oil?
Wood pressed oil is traditionally extracted using a wooden pressing process, commonly known as Kolhu, Ghani, or Chekku extraction in different parts of India.
Instead of relying on intensive industrial refining, the seeds or nuts are mechanically crushed to release their natural oils. The slower traditional process helps preserve the characteristic colour, aroma, and flavour of the oil.
The exact extraction temperature and process can vary depending on the seed, equipment, and production method. At Live With Purity, we focus on traditional extraction and minimal processing to bring you oils that retain their natural character.
Why Choose Pure Wood Pressed Oil?
Choosing a traditionally extracted oil means choosing an oil that is closer to its natural form and has not undergone the extensive refining process used for many conventional cooking oils.

Naturally Flavourful

How Is Wood Pressed Oil Made?
The traditional extraction process generally involves several important stages:
1. Selection of Seeds
Quality seeds or nuts are selected as the primary raw material.
2. Cleaning
The raw material is cleaned to remove dust, stones, and other unwanted material.
3. Traditional Pressing
The cleaned seeds or nuts are mechanically crushed using a traditional wood-based pressing system.
4. Oil Collection
The oil released during pressing is collected for further processing.
5. Filtration
The extracted oil may be naturally settled and/or filtered to remove suspended particles.
6. Quality & Packaging
The finished oil is checked according to applicable quality requirements and packaged for delivery.
This traditional approach helps retain the characteristic aroma, colour, and flavour of the source ingredient.

How to Choose the Right Wood Pressed Oil?
The best oil for you depends largely on your cooking style and the flavour you prefer.
For traditional Indian cooking:
Mustard oil and sesame oil are popular choices.
For everyday cooking:
Groundnut oil can be a versatile option because of its mild, nutty flavour.
For coconut-based recipes:
Coconut oil works particularly well in dishes where its characteristic flavour complements the recipe.
For traditional tempering:
Sesame and mustard oils are commonly used depending on regional cooking styles.
Rather than choosing an oil only because of a particular health claim, consider the source ingredient, extraction method, flavour, cooking application, and your overall dietary needs.
How to Store Wood Pressed Oil
Proper storage can help maintain the quality and flavour of your oil.
- Keep the bottle tightly closed after use.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wood Pressed Oil
What is wood pressed oil?
Wood pressed oil is oil extracted from seeds or nuts using a traditional mechanical pressing method, often associated with Kolhu, Ghani, or Chekku-style extraction.
Is wood pressed oil the same as cold pressed oil?
The terms are sometimes used interchangeably in the market, but they are not necessarily identical. “Wood pressed” refers primarily to the traditional pressing method, while “cold pressed” generally refers to extraction carried out without significant heat generation. The exact process depends on the manufacturer.
Is wood pressed oil suitable for everyday cooking?
Yes. Many wood pressed oils can be used for everyday cooking. The appropriate oil depends on the type of cooking, recipe, flavour preference, and the specific oil’s product specifications.
Which wood pressed oil is best for Indian cooking?
There is no single best oil for every recipe. Mustard, groundnut, sesame, and coconut oils each have different flavours and cooking characteristics. Choose according to your preferred cuisine and cooking method.
Can I use wood pressed oil for frying?
Some wood pressed oils can be used for frying, depending on their specific properties and product specifications. Always check the manufacturer’s recommended usage and cooking guidance.
Does wood pressed oil contain chemicals?
Pure mechanically extracted oil does not require the same chemical refining process associated with conventional refined oils. However, processing and filtration methods vary by manufacturer, so check the product label for the exact processing information.
Why does wood pressed oil have a stronger aroma?
Because traditionally extracted oils may retain more of the natural characteristics of their source ingredients, they can have a more noticeable aroma and flavour than highly refined oils.

Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Keep the container tightly closed when not in use and follow the storage instructions on the product label.
