Description
Peanut oil, also known as groundnut oil or arachide/arachis oil or Kadalekaayi Enne or Moongaphalee Ka Tel, is a mild-tasting vegetable oil derived from peanuts. The oil is available with a strong peanut flavor and aroma, analogous to sesame oil. Peanut oil has highest smoking point, it is best suited for deep frying and cooking. So they are predominantly used in most of the South Asian countries. It is a very good source of Vitamin E and acts as an antioxidant by protecting the body from free radical damage. It also plays a role in reducing the risk of heart diseases.At Saptham, we carefully pick only the finest seeds (you can watch our manufacturing process live here) the seeds are sun dried first, cleaned and then put in to the Gaana or the Marachekku churner. The peanut oil is extracted at room temperature. The wood absorbs heat and maintains atmospheric temperature in oil extraction.The raw material of groundnut seeds is ground in to a paste and is pressed with the heavy wood mill until it expels the oil. This extracted oil is now stored in the barrels and is kept in the sunlight. Once the sediments settle, it is then filtered and finally sent for packing.
