Chhau-a-koe is usually made in Qingming Festival as a celebratory food item. Although the kuih can be made from either herb, Chinese mugwort is more commonly used in making the Hakka-style variety.[1][2] The herb-flavored dough is commonly filled with ground meat, dried white radish, or sweet bean pastes. In Taiwan, a filling consisting of dried shrimp, shiitake mushrooms, dried and shredded white radish (菜脯), and deep-friedshallots is commonly used.
