Our mustard oil: cold-pressed, aromatic and spicy
With its golden-yellow color and subtly spicy pungency, mustard oil is a distinctive flavor oil for creative cuisine. It lends salads, vegetable dishes, curries, and dals a unique touch. Because our mustard oil is gently cold-pressed, its full aroma and valuable nutrients are preserved.
Cold-pressed mustard oil for the kitchen
Our natural mustard oil is a perfect complement to robust and aromatic dishes. It harmonizes particularly well with potato, cucumber, and bean salads, in curries, dals, and stir-fries, or as a delicate seasoning oil drizzled over finished dishes. It can be gently warmed—for example, for steaming vegetables or toasting spices. Its finish reveals a pleasantly spicy heat that adds depth and character to dishes.
Use in personal care?
Mustard oil also has its uses outside the kitchen. It is traditionally valued as a massage oil due to its warming effect. In hair care, it can nourish the scalp and provide a feeling of vitality.

Indian mustard oil – cold-pressed in Zurich
Our mustard oil is made from natural, organically grown mustard seeds from India. The mustard seeds are carefully and gently cold-pressed in our Zurich manufactory at temperatures between 30°C and 34°C. This gentle processing ensures that the flavor, color, and valuable nutrients are optimally preserved.
We press our mustard oil exclusively in small quantities and preferably fresh to order, so that it is always available in the best quality.
