Celebrity chef Hilda Baci has received her second Guinness World Record plaque, this time for cooking the world’s largest pot of jollof rice.
The record, confirmed by Guinness World Records, was achieved during a Lagos cookout in September, where Hilda prepared 8,780 kilograms (19,356 pounds) of jollof rice.
This new recognition comes a year and a few months after her first record for completing a 93-hour, 11-minute cooking marathon in May 2023.
With both records, Hilda becomes Nigeria’s first chef to hold multiple Guinness World Record titles.
Sharing the news on social media, she wrote:
“Your plaques are finally here!!! Two records. Two plaques. One story of faith, fire, and history. Twice, God showed up for me. Twice, we made history for Nigeria. And not just any records — two of the biggest culinary records ever set.”
She added:
“A two-time Guinness World Record holder!!! Instead of your shame you will receive a double portion, and instead of disgrace you will rejoice in your inheritance. And so you will inherit a double portion in your land, and everlasting joy will be yours. Isaiah 61:7.”
