FORTUNE MUSTARD OIL 500G
€3,49
A 500 gram bottle of the same kachi ghani mustard oil, half the litre. The right size if mustard oil is an occasional ingredient rather than your everyday cooking fat, because a strong oil left open loses its bite. Same-day delivery across the Utrecht region.
Description
Most households outside eastern India use mustard oil for specific dishes rather than for everything, and that changes which bottle to buy. A litre opened in March and finished in November has spent eight months slowly oxidising in a warm kitchen, and it will not taste like the oil that went in.
Half a litre is roughly the amount a household gets through in two or three months of occasional use, which keeps it fresh. Everything else is unchanged: heat it to smoking first, cool it slightly, then cook. It is the same oil as the litre and the five litre can, so buy on how fast you use it rather than on any difference in the bottle.
Which size should I buy? Take this one if mustard oil goes into a few dishes a month. Go up to the litre or the five litre can if it is your main cooking oil, because both are cheaper by volume.
Does mustard oil go off? It goes stale rather than dangerous. Light and warmth are what do it, so a capped bottle in a dark cupboard holds its pungency far longer than one left beside the hob.
For everyday cooking take the one litre bottle instead, and Panjab Supermarket’s oil and ghee shelf carries the rest. Vegetarian. Keep the bottle capped in a cool, dark cupboard, because light and heat are what turn a cooking oil stale.
