Cold Pressed Cooking Oil: Keeping the Good Stuff In

Most of the time, we don’t think about how our cooking oil is made — but the process can make a big difference in both taste and nutrition. The way an oil is extracted affects everything from its flavor to how healthy it is for you. That’s why more people are reaching for cold pressed cooking oil — it’s natural, simple, and keeps all the good stuff intact.

Cold pressing is exactly what it sounds like. Instead of using high heat or chemicals to pull oil out of seeds or fruit, the oil is gently pressed out using pressure alone. This slow, careful method keeps more of the oil’s vitamins, antioxidants, and flavor. It also avoids the harsh refining that can make cheaper oils lose their color, nutrients, and taste.

When oils are processed with heat, they can oxidize and form unwanted compounds. That’s why cold pressed oils tend to taste fresher and perform better for light cooking or finishing dishes. They’re the kind of oils that make food shine instead of masking its flavor.

AHHH Love Oil’s Premium High Oleic Cooking Oil follows this same philosophy. It’s made from seedless palm fruit that’s naturally rich in oleic acid — the same heart-healthy fat found in olive oil and avocados. Because it’s gently pressed and not chemically refined, the oil keeps its smooth texture, golden color, and subtle flavor that pairs with anything you cook.

The benefits go beyond taste. Cold pressed oils retain natural antioxidants, like Vitamin E and tocotrienols, that help protect your heart and support your body’s cells. They’re also easier to digest because they’re less processed and free from chemical residues found in some refined oils.

Another plus is sustainability. Cold pressing uses less energy and fewer additives than industrial refining. Combined with ethical farming practices, it makes for a product that’s better for you and better for the planet.

If you’ve been looking for a way to make your cooking cleaner and more flavorful, this is it. Cold pressed oil brings out the natural beauty of food without adding anything unnecessary. It’s simple, pure, and the way oil was meant to be made.

With AHHH Love Oil, you get that same care and craftsmanship in every bottle — a cold pressed, high oleic oil that’s rich, balanced, and made for everyday cooking. Because the best meals start with ingredients that are real.
