Frequently Asked Questions

Why is there a caution on the label? In the US, mustard oil carries labeling notes due to FDA erucic acid regulations, even though it is a traditional cooking oil consumed across South Asia. The oil is safe for cooking use in the culinary tradition it comes from.

Is the 500ml bottle better value than the 8.5 fl oz? Yes — the 500ml provides better value per ml while remaining more practical than the 4L for households using mustard oil occasionally to regularly.

Can I use mustard oil raw in salads? Yes — raw mustard oil’s pungency is actually desirable in some Indian salad dressings, chutneys, and marinades. The raw pungency is a feature, not a flaw, in these applications.
