About Tilkut

Tilkut Recipe

Tilkut is a famous Bihar winter sweet made with roasted sesame and jaggery, especially loved around Makar Sankranti.

Tilkut is written for real home kitchens with Jaggery, Cardamom Powder, and Sesame Seeds. Follow the steps in order, keep the timing practical and adjust seasoning at the end for a balanced result.

Why this recipe works

  • Roast sesame gently so it smells nutty, not burnt.
  • Cook jaggery syrup to a firm setting stage.
  • Shape or press quickly while warm.
