Shop cold-pressed oils from Valluvam: naturally extracted, unrefined and delivered fresh to your doorstep across India.
Valluvam wood cold-pressed oils are made the traditional marachekku way: groundnuts, sesame and coconuts are crushed slowly in a wooden press at low temperature, so the oil keeps its natural aroma, colour and nutrients. No heat, no chemicals, no bleaching and no refining - just pure groundnut oil (kadalai ennai), sesame / gingelly oil (nallennai) and coconut oil (thengai ennai) for everyday cooking.
Valluvam oils are crushed slowly in a wooden press at low temperature, with no chemical solvents. The oil is not bleached or deodorised, so it keeps the natural aroma and taste of the seed. That is why a spoon of cold-pressed groundnut oil smells of groundnuts and a spoon of sesame oil smells toasty.

Yes. Cold pressed groundnut and sesame oil are traditionally used for everyday South Indian cooking, and coconut oil for cooking, hair and skin.
Cold-pressed oil is crushed mechanically at low temperature and only settled and filtered. Refined oil is extracted with heat and usually solvents and then bleached and deodorised. Cold-pressed oil keeps the natural aroma of the seed.
Groundnut oil suits everyday cooking and frying, sesame oil suits podi, pickles and tempering, and coconut oil suits Kerala-style dishes. Many homes keep all three.
Coconut oil solidifies below about 24 degrees C. Stand the bottle in warm water for a few minutes and it will liquefy.
