Mangalam oils · made in Bhadohi, U.P.
Wood-pressed and cold-pressed oils made the slow way, from one seed and nothing else. Unrefined, so the colour, aroma and taste you grew up with stay in the bottle.
The oils
Every Mangalam oil is pressed from a single seed. Pick one to see how it tastes and where it belongs in your kitchen.
How it's made
A kolhu is a wooden mortar and pestle that turns in slow circles. It takes far longer than a refinery. That is the point.
Whole seeds are cleared of dust, stones and husk before they go in. One seed per batch, never a blend.
The kolhu turns at a walking pace, so seeds are crushed rather than heated. Nothing is added to force out more oil.
The oil is filtered to clear seed particles. No bleaching, no deodorising, no solvents. That is why it keeps its colour and smell.
Bottled with a tamper seal, with the batch number and packing date printed on the label.
Nothing to hide
The back of every Mangalam bottle says where the seed came from, who pressed it and how to check us.
The flours
Millet, pulse and grain flours milled and packed in Bhadohi. Jowar for winter rotis, besan for pakode, multigrain for every day.
Where it comes from
“I am the seed of all beings.” Bhagavad Gita 7.10
This line sits under the Mangalam mark on every pack. It is a reminder that what reaches your kitchen is only as honest as the seed it starts from.
