Cold & Wood Pressed Moringa Oil 100ml

Cold and wood-pressed moringa oil with a mild, earthy taste for the kitchen and for hair and skin routines.

Our Moringa Oil is extracted using traditional wooden pressing, with no chemicals, additives or preservatives, and it's edible. Sometimes called ben oil, it has a light, smooth, mildly nutty flavour and a clear golden colour. It works as a finishing oil and for gentle cooking, and it has long been a staple in Indian homes for hair oiling too.

How to use it

In the kitchen

• Salad dressings: Whisk with lemon juice or vinegar and a pinch of salt for a light dressing.
• Finishing oil: Drizzle over dal, curries, roasted vegetables or rice just before serving.
• Gentle cooking: Suitable for light sautéing at low to medium heat. It isn't a general deep-frying oil.

For hair and skin

• Hair oiling: Mix with coconut, almond or sesame oil, massage into the scalp and lengths, leave for 1–2 hours or overnight, then shampoo well.
• Dry skin: Warm a few drops between your palms and press into elbows, heels and cuticles.

Ingredients
