Nigerian Jollof is the best, Ghana Jollof has no flavor – Hilda Baci

During a recent podcast discussion, Hilda Baci, a renowned Nigerian celebrity chef, delved into the perennial debate over the culinary rivalry between Ghana Jollof and Nigerian Jollof.

In her candid remarks, Baci asserted that after tasting Ghana Jollof, she could confidently affirm that it falls short of the exquisite flavors found in Nigerian Jollof, a bold declaration that has once again stirred the flames of the ongoing Jollof war.

As a former Guinness World Record holder for the longest cooking marathon, Baci’s opinion carries weight in the culinary world.

She emphasized her firsthand experience, recounting her visit to Ghana, where she not only sampled their Jollof but also engaged in a friendly competition with a Ghanaian chef who showcased his best Jollof.

According to Baci, the Ghanaian rendition lacked the robust flavor profile that characterizes Nigerian Jollof.

Expanding on her perspective, Hilda Baci highlighted the meticulous attention Nigerians devote to the art of flavor building in their Jollof preparation.

With Nigerian Jollof, Nigerians don’t play with flavor building, she remarked, underlining the essence of rich and savory taste that distinguishes her country’s Jollof.

Unsurprisingly, Baci’s remarks reignited the Jollof war on social media, with Ghanaians expressing their dissenting opinions.

One social media user critiqued the correlation between the ability to cook for extended hours and the ability to create delectable dishes, suggesting that the two skills are not synonymous.

Another user playfully jabbed at Baci’s cooking style, humorously remarking, From a person who cooks a small pot of stew with 6 maggi…. Chaiiii Chef gbeee massa komot.

Adding an unexpected twist to the culinary discourse, news recently broke that Hilda Baci had been dethroned from her Guinness World Record title for the longest cooking marathon.

The Guinness World Records (GWR) officially confirmed this change, naming Alan Fisher as the new record holder.

As Baci continues to make headlines, her outspoken opinions on Jollof have undeniably added a flavorful dimension to the ongoing banter between Ghanaian and Nigerian food enthusiasts.
