Nigerian culinary star and Guinness World Record holder, Hilda Baci, has revealed her ambitious plans to set another milestone in the world of food records. The celebrated chef, who captured global attention with her record-breaking cooking marathon in 2023, announced that she will be using an astonishing 250 bags of Basmati Rice in her upcoming Guinness World Record attempt for the largest pot of Jollof Rice.
According to Baci, this historic cooking feat is not just about breaking a record, but also about showcasing African cuisine—particularly the globally beloved Jollof Rice—on a grand stage. The event, which is expected to attract massive local and international attention, will feature an enormous pot specially designed to hold and cook thousands of servings of rice.
Speaking about the preparation, Hilda noted that the scale of logistics required is immense, ranging from sourcing ingredients and coordinating chefs to ensuring food safety standards and crowd management. She expressed confidence that her team is ready to deliver an unforgettable experience, one that will unite food lovers and further spotlight Nigeria’s culinary excellence.
“I want this attempt to be more than just about numbers,” she said. “It’s about culture, pride, and showing the world the richness of our food traditions. Using 250 bags of Basmati Rice means thousands of people will be able to share in this history-making moment.”
Her announcement has already generated widespread excitement across social media, with many Nigerians and food enthusiasts pledging their support. If successful, the attempt will not only break records but also cement Hilda Baci’s name further in the annals of culinary history as one of the most daring and innovative chefs of her generation.
