Bhagalpur

Bhagalpur, the ancient capital of the Anga kingdom and the fabled Silk City on the southern bank of the Ganga, has long been a byword for refinement — in its handwoven tussar, its riverside orchards, and its kitchens. This collection gathers the district’s most celebrated foods, each sourced directly from the original makers who have guarded these recipes for generations. At its heart are two Geographical Indication treasures: Katarni Chura, the intensely aromatic flattened rice pressed from Bhagalpur’s prized Katarni paddy and eaten as dahi-chura through winter and Makar Sankranti, and Zardalu Aam Papad, sun-dried mango leather made from the honey-sweet GI-tagged Zardalu mango. Alongside them sits a robust Bhagalpuri Aam ka Achar, raw mango cured the slow way in pungent mustard oil.
