cold-pressed oil
Mechanically squeezed fat
Cold-pressed oil is extracted from seeds, nuts, or fruits by mechanical pressing without heat or chemical solvents.
The low-temperature process preserves flavor, nutrients, and natural compounds that would break down under heat.
Cold-pressed olive oil has a more robust taste than refined versions.
The term appears frequently in marketing for cooking oils and cosmetics.
