Rajamudi Organic Cold-Pressed Groundnut Oil | Moongfali Oil | Kachi Ghani Process
Premium, Natural and Aromatic will come to your mind the minute you open the bottle of Rajamudi’s Organic cold-pressed groundnut oil. And you'd be absolutely right!
We handpick the finest, freshest organic groundnuts, clean them with utmost care, and patiently wood-press them, without heat or chemicals, to preserve all the nutrients they are naturally packed with. This slow process is what locks in its rich, nutty aroma, making it a must-have on your kitchen counter.
Groundnuts are naturally packed with heart-friendly Omega-6 fats and Vitamin E, making this oil more than just an ingredient- it’s a health boost. Plus, the antioxidants are like little bodyguards helping strengthen your immune system while keeping things balanced.
Extraction Process:
Did You Know? We use approximately 2.5kg of fresh organic groundnuts to produce just 1 liter of our Organic Cold-Pressed Groundnut Oil
Rajamudi Organics sources organically grown groundnuts locally from our farmers in West Karnataka. Each batch is carefully inspected, ensuring that only the finest, most nutrient-rich groundnuts are selected for extraction. We use the traditional Kachi Ghani technique, milling these premium groundnuts in our cold-press extractor running at 10-20 RPM at room temperature. The controlled, low-speed extraction prevents heat buildup, preserving the oil’s natural nutrients, aroma, and flavor.
Once extracted, the oil is gently filtered through a fine sieve or gada cloth and placed under the sun or in a solar dryer for natural dseimentation. As the sediments settle at the bottom, the pure oil is carefully poured out. Since our oil undergoes no mechanical or chemical filtration, its texture may be thicker, and the consistency can vary slightly from batch to batch- just as nature intended.
Unlike commercial oils that go through refining, bleaching, and deodorizing for a uniform, glass-like appearance, our Organic Cold-Pressed Groundnut Oil stays true to tradition. Using an ancient extraction method, it retains its natural flavor aroma and nutrients.

FAQs
What is the difference between refined and cold-pressed oils?
Refined oils are processed to remove impurities, giving them a neutral taste and high smoke point making them great for deep-frying and high-heat cooking. However, during this refining process, some nutrients and antioxidants can be lost.
On the other hand, cold-pressed oils are made without heat or chemicals, preserving natural nutrients, flavor, and healthy fats. These are perfect for versatile cooking like deep-fry, salad dressing, sizzling, baking and more.
Is it suitable for deep frying?
Groundnut oil has a high smoke point and a naturally pleasant taste, making it perfect for deep frying. Its light texture allows it to blend seamlessly with other flavors without overpowering them, making it an ideal choice for everyday cooking.
