New Delhi [India]. August 8: When it comes to daily cooking, oil is that invisible sidekick. Always in the pan, rarely on our minds. But here's the truth: not all oils are created equal and the one you use can make a big difference to both your food and your health.
That's where cold-pressed oils for daily cooking come in. And no one is leading that change quite like Tata Simply Better.
What's Wrong with Regular Refined Oils?
They may look clean, but refined oils are often:
* Processed using high heat and chemicals
* Stripped of natural nutrients and antioxidants
* Bleached and deodorised for a neutral look and taste
* Blended with other oils or additives to lower its cost
You end up with oil that looks clear but contributes nothing to your food or your well-being.
What Makes Cold Pressed Oils Simply Better?
Cold-pressed oils are made the traditional way -- without heat or chemicals -- to preserve the natural goodness of the seed or fruit. Here's why that matters:
1. Packed with Natural Nutrients
They retain essential nutrients like Vitamin E, MUFAs and PUFAs that support heart health, brain function and overall wellness.
2. Rich in Natural Aroma and Flavour
Unlike refined oils, cold pressed oils keep the original scent and taste of the ingredients, adding depth and freshness to your cooking.
3. Loaded with Antioxidants
These oils are naturally rich in antioxidants that help support immunity and protect the body from everyday stress and inflammation.
4. Better Texture in Cooking
The thicker, unrefined texture means a better coating, richer flavour and great results in everything from tadkas to stir-fries.
These oils are delicious, versatile and full of real goodness. Perfect for anyone who wants to make their meals cleaner, tastier and smarter without compromising on taste.

Why Cold-Pressed Oils for Daily Cooking Just Make Sense?

Here's what cold-pressed oils for daily cooking bring to your table:

* They are loaded with benefits: Be it weight management, heart health, digestion or immunity, they're designed to help
Making Cold Pressed Oils a Habit (Not a Hassle)
Let's face it: changing habits in the kitchen can be hard. But the switch to cold-pressed oils is one of the easiest upgrades you can make.
Try these everyday swaps:
* Use cold-pressed sunflower oil for school lunch prep and everyday sabzis! It's mild and loved by picky eaters.
* Swap your usual tadka oil for mustard or sesame oil which has more flavour.
* Drizzle extra virgin olive oil over leftover dal or rice bowls, trust us, it works!
* Add cold pressed coconut oil to porridge or smoothies, you won't even notice the switch, but your body will.
* Use groundnut oil for rotis and parathas as it gives a delicious aroma and needs no extra ghee.
