Best Home Cook is a cookery competition show that sees ten passionate, skilled home cooks face a range of culinary challenges from fabulous feasts to family favourites.
Over eight episodes, the ten contestants demonstrate skill under pressure and individual flair, as they are asked to create their special take on well-loved classics and demonstrate their personality on a plate.
The cooks have left their families behind and live together throughout the competition. At the house they let off steam about the events of the day, research great new home cooking ideas and prepare for the next day’s challenges.
The judges are looking for dishes that define a new benchmark of excellence, whether it’s a Sunday roast, an ingenious twist on chicken curry or an irresistible chocolate pudding. Each challenge will reveal new tips and techniques as the competing cooks battle to prove that they have the skills, the repertoire, and the creativity to avoid elimination, get through to the final and be crowned Best Home Cook.
