Why Use Cold Pressed Oils for Tiffins?

Cold pressed oils are extracted from seeds, nuts, or fruits using gentle mechanical methods, without heat or chemicals. This ensures that the oil retains natural antioxidants, vitamins, and essential fatty acids. For tiffins, this means:

  • Nutrient-Rich Meals: Your lunch stays packed with good fats and vitamins that support energy and focus throughout the day.

  • Better Flavour: Cold pressed oils have a naturally rich aroma and taste, elevating even simple dishes like stir-fried vegetables or dal.

  • Digestive Comfort: These oils are easier on the stomach compared to heavily refined oils, reducing midday bloating or discomfort.

By choosing cold pressed oils for tiffins, you’re investing in both nutrition and taste.

Best Cold Pressed Oils for Tiffin Recipes

Different oils bring unique flavours and benefits to your tiffin. Here are some top choices from Tata Simply Better:

  • Cold Pressed Groundnut Oil: Mildly nutty, perfect for sautéing vegetables, making parathas, or frying snack items.

  • Cold Pressed Coconut Oil: Adds a tropical aroma; ideal for stir-fries, South Indian dishes, or baking tiffin treats like muffins.

  • Cold Pressed Sesame Oil: Distinctive nutty flavour; excellent for South Indian curries, tempering, or light frying.

  • Cold Pressed Mustard Oil: Bold and pungent; enhances flavour in North Indian stir-fries and pickles.

  • Cold Pressed Sunflower Oil: Neutral taste; versatile for almost any tiffin recipe without overpowering other flavours.

  • Cold Pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Perfect for cold dishes, sandwiches, or salad dressings for a refreshing tiffin option.

Tips for Using Cold Pressed Oils for Tiffins

To make the most of cold pressed oils for tiffins, keep these practical tips in mind:

  1. Use Moderate Heat: Cold pressed oils have lower smoke points than refined oils, so avoid high-heat deep frying. Stick to sautéing, tempering, or light pan-frying.

  2. Add Oil at the Right Time: For tempering spices or making curries, heat your pan first and then add the oil. This helps preserve nutrients and aroma.

  3. Pack Smart: Avoid oily spills by using small containers for curries or dressings. Cold pressed oils maintain their flavour without making the tiffin soggy.

  4. Mix and Match Oils: Different oils complement different dishes. For example, coconut oil pairs beautifully with South Indian dishes, while mustard oil elevates Punjabi-style tiffins.
