TEST Lusha Cold-Pressed Mustard Oil – Pure, Authentic, and Heart-Healthy Cooking Oil (Copy)
Product Information
Scientific name: Brassica juncea
In a world flooded with artificial options, mustard oil stands tall as one of India’s oldest and most trusted cooking oils. For generations, sarson ka tel has been cherished not only for its distinctive, pungent flavor but also for its remarkable health benefits. At Lusha, we are proud to carry forward this rich legacy with a commitment to unmatched purity and innovative tradition.
We are the first brand in India to offer live cold extraction of extra virgin mustard oil , a process carefully conducted below 40°C to preserve every natural nutrient, antioxidant, and the oil has vibrant aroma. Unlike refined oils that undergo high heat and chemical treatments, our cold-pressed mustard oil maintains its raw, unaltered integrity, free from additives, preservatives, and harmful processing.
Mustard oil is naturally abundant in heart-healthy MUFA and PUFA fats, while being low in saturated fat. This composition helps to increase good cholesterol (HDL) and reduce bad cholesterol (LDL), contributing to better cardiovascular health. Additionally, it boasts a perfectly balanced Omega-6 to Omega-3 fatty acids ratio, making it an excellent choice for heart-conscious kitchens.
Beyond nutrition, mustard oil serves as a natural detoxifier and contains powerful anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, offering benefits beyond the kitchen for holistic wellness.
With a high smoke point of 250°C (482°F), Lusha Mustard Oil excels in Indian cooking techniques like deep frying, sautéing, and stir-frying. It infuses dishes such as curries, pickles, and dals with its authentic pungency, without the irritation or harshness often found in inferior oils. Our oil is unrefined and single-filtered, sometimes showing natural sediment—a mark of its purity and authenticity.
With Lusha, mustard oil is not just an ingredient, it is a return to genuine flavor, care, and wellness. Experience the difference tradition, technology, and trust bring to every drop of Lusha Extra Virgin Mustard Oil.

1. What variety of mustard is used in this oil?
It's made from whole yellow mustard seeds (Brassica juncea), cold-pressed to preserve their natural oil content, nutrients, and characteristic pungency.
2. How is this different from mustard oil found in regular supermarkets?
Most commercial mustard oils are refined using heat and chemical processing. Lusha's is extracted through live cold extraction below 40°C, keeping it unrefined and closer to its natural, nutrient-rich state.
3. Is this oil good for daily cooking, or only occasional use?
It's suited for everyday Indian cooking — its high smoke point (250°C/482°F) makes it reliable for daily use across frying, sautéing, and tempering (tadka), not just occasional dishes.
4. Does it have any heart health benefits?
Yes. It naturally contains MUFA and PUFA fats with a balanced Omega-6 to Omega-3 ratio, a profile associated with supporting good cholesterol (HDL) while helping keep bad cholesterol (LDL) in check.
5. Why is the color and aroma so strong compared to other oils?
Since it's cold-pressed and unrefined, it retains its natural yellow-golden hue and sharp pungent aroma — both signs that the oil hasn't been stripped of its natural compounds through heavy processing.
6. Can I use it for pickles and preservation, not just cooking?
Yes — mustard oil's natural antibacterial and antimicrobial properties make it a traditional choice for pickling, helping preserve pickles naturally without needing added preservatives.
7. Is it suitable for people with sensitive digestion?
Mustard oil is generally well-tolerated in Indian cooking traditions, but its pungency can be strong for some — using it in moderation, especially when introducing it into a diet, is a reasonable approach for anyone with a sensitive palate or digestion.
8. Can this oil be used outside the kitchen?
Yes, it has traditional uses beyond cooking — including Ayurvedic body massage and as a home remedy for colds and coughs, thanks to its warming and anti-inflammatory properties.
9. Why is there some sediment visible in the bottle?
Because it's unrefined and single-filtered rather than heavily processed, minor natural sediment can settle at the bottom — this is a normal sign of purity, not spoilage.
10. How should I store it to keep it fresh?
Keep the bottle in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat, and use it within 12 months of opening for the best flavor and nutritional quality.
