Organic Mustard Oil

Mustard Oil Process

1. Harvesting Mustard Seeds

We harvest mature mustard seed pods from mustard plants. We ensure that the mustard seeds are fully ripe for the best oil quality.

2. Cleaning & Drying

Then we remove any impurities such as dirt, stones or damaged seeds from the harvested mustard seeds. This can be done by hand-sorting or using a sieve. We allow the cleaned mustard seeds to dry naturally to reduce their moisture content. Then we spread them out on a clean, dry surface in a well-ventilated area.

3. Grinding

Dried mustard seeds then transferred to a traditional wooden grinder or an ofil expeller machine specifically designed for mustard oil extraction. Then we grind the seeds to obtain a coarse powder.

4. Pressing

Then we feed the ground mustard seeds into a wooden press and apply pressure to extract the oil. The wooden press consists of a large wooden beam or lever that is manually operated to crush the seeds and separate the oil. As pressure is applied, the oil is forced out and collected.

5. Filtering

Once the oil is extracted, we strain it through a clean muslin cloth or a fine mesh strainer to remove any remaining solid particles or impurities. This will result in a clear, filtered mustard oil.

6. Bottling

Finally we pour the settled oil into our glass bottles carefully.
