Cold-Pressed Mustard Oil in Pickling
Aathana Heritage
The Gold Standard of Preservatives
Mustard oil is the lifeblood of North and West Indian pickling. We use only 100% pure, cold-pressed mustard oil (Kachi Ghani) to cure our pickles.
Why Cold-Pressed Mustard Oil?
- Natural Preservation: High concentration of allyl isothiocyanate naturally inhibits fungal and bacterial growth.
- Pungent Flavor: Adds a distinct, robust aroma that defines traditional homemade pickles.
- Heart-Healthy Fats: Cold-pressing retains beneficial monounsaturated fatty acids and antioxidants.
By avoiding heat during extraction, we ensure the oil retains its therapeutic properties and natural richness.
