Jamshedpur — Heritage and Identity
Jamshedpur is India's first planned industrial city, built by Jamsetji Tata in 1907 around the Tata Steel plant. The city grew by drawing workers from across India — Bengal, Bihar, Odisha, UP, Tamil Nadu — creating one of the most diverse food cultures in eastern India. It is a city where the factory siren and the temple bell ring together.
Jamshedpur's food is a mosaic of its migrant communities. Bengali fish curries, Bihari litti chokha, Odia dalma, and South Indian dosas all coexist. Mustard oil dominates the Bengali and Bihari kitchens that form the city's culinary core, while coconut oil serves the South Indian community concentrated around the Tata township.
Jamshedpur's dishes that use mustard oil
Jamshedpur's large Bengali and Bihari population runs on mustard oil. Cold-press kachi ghani sarson ka tel is the authentic base for the fish curries and litti chokha that define the city's working-class food culture.
Known locally as: Sarson tel / Sorse tel
Why cold pressed — not refined
No heat, no chemicals. The oil retains its natural nutrients, aroma, and flavour exactly as nature intended.
Refined oil uses hexane to extract every last drop. Cold press uses only mechanical pressure — nothing else touches the oil.
Omega fatty acids, vitamin E, antioxidants, and natural phytochemicals — all destroyed by refining, all preserved by cold press.

What nutrition experts say about cold pressed oils
"Cold pressed mustard oil retains its natural allyl isothiocyanate and glucosinolates, which are potent antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory compounds. Refining destroys these entirely. For Indian cooking, kachi ghani mustard oil is nutritionally superior to any refined alternative."
Dr. Shikha Sharma
Nutritionist and Wellness Expert

On cold pressed vs refined edible oils in Indian diets
"Traditional Indian cooking with kachi ghani sarson ka tel has been validated by modern nutritional science. The omega-3 to omega-6 ratio in cold pressed mustard oil is among the most favourable of any cooking oil — better than sunflower, palm, or refined vegetable oil blends."
Dr. Rupali Datta

On traditional Indian cooking oils and modern nutritional science
ICMR Dietary Guidelines for Indians (2024): The Indian Council of Medical Research recommends using traditional cold pressed oils (kachi ghani) as part of a balanced Indian diet. The guidelines specifically note that cold pressed mustard oil, sesame oil, and groundnut oil retain their natural fatty acid profiles and micronutrients, making them preferable to refined and hydrogenated alternatives.
