Where to Buy Cold Pressed Oil in Pune — Mustard, Sesame & Groundnut Oil Delivered
Pune's health-conscious households are switching to cold pressed oils — but genuine kachi ghani mustard oil and pure sesame oil are hard to find locally. Here's how to get them delivered.
Pune — Maharashtra's second city and one of India's fastest-growing metros — has a food culture that blends traditional Maharashtrian cooking with influences from across India. The city's large student and IT population has made it one of the most health-conscious markets in India.
Cold pressed oils are in demand. But finding genuinely cold pressed mustard oil, sesame oil, or groundnut oil in Pune's retail market is harder than it should be.
The Pune Cold Pressed Oil Problem
Most oil sold in Pune supermarkets — Big Bazaar, D-Mart, Reliance Fresh — is refined. Even products labelled "cold pressed" or "kachi ghani" on the shelf are often expeller-pressed at high heat or blended with refined oil.
The genuine article — oil extracted below 45°C with no chemicals, no hexane, no bleaching — is produced by small-batch manufacturers, mostly in North India where mustard oil culture is strongest.
Ordering directly from a verified producer is the most reliable way to get genuine cold pressed oil in Pune.
Which Cold Pressed Oil for Which Maharashtrian Dish
Groundnut oil (shengdana tel) — The backbone of Maharashtrian cooking. Puran poli, misal pav, bharli vangi, and most sabzis are traditionally made in groundnut oil. Cold pressed groundnut oil has a rich, nutty flavour that refined versions lack entirely.
Sesame oil (til ka tel) — Used in tilgul laddoo, til chikki, and sesame-based chutneys. Also used in Konkan fish preparations. Cold pressed sesame oil retains the full nutty aroma and sesamol content.
Coconut oil — Essential for Konkan and Goan cooking. Malvani curries, fish preparations, and coconut chutneys require coconut oil. Cold pressed coconut oil has a fresh coconut aroma that refined versions lose.
Mustard oil — Less traditional in Maharashtra but increasingly used by North Indian communities in Pune (large populations from UP, Bihar, Bengal, and Rajasthan). Essential for authentic Bengali, Bihari, and Punjabi cooking.
What to Look for When Buying Cold Pressed Oil in Pune
Whether buying locally or online, verify:
- FSSAI license number — check at fssai.gov.in
- Extraction temperature — must be below 45°C for genuine cold pressing
- "Kachi ghani" for mustard oil — FSSAI-recognised term for cold pressed mustard oil
- Lab test reports — fatty acid profile confirms the oil hasn't been blended or adulterated
- No hexane, no bleaching, no deodorisation — these are refining processes that destroy nutrients
