Chhath Puja is one of the most important festivals celebrated in Bihar and several other parts of India. The festival is dedicated to the worship of Surya Dev and Chhathi Maiya. Among the traditional offerings prepared during this festival, Thekua holds a special place.
Thekua is traditionally prepared as prasad and offered during Chhath Puja rituals. Its preparation is closely connected with family traditions and festive customs.
Thekua is generally made using wheat flour, jaggery or sugar, ghee and other selected ingredients. The dough is shaped using traditional moulds and fried until golden brown. Families often follow recipes passed down through generations.
For people from Bihar, Thekua often brings memories of childhood, family gatherings and Chhath celebrations. Even those living away from their hometowns look forward to enjoying this traditional taste during the festival.
Today, Thekua is enjoyed throughout the year, not just during Chhath Puja. Sharing traditional recipes and food stories helps keep this part of Bihar's cultural heritage alive.
