Bake Off champ Nadiya Hussain on her foodie tour of the UK and why it’s time to embrace the diversity of our food.
Hugely popular Bake Off 2015 winner and best-selling author Nadiya Hussain is hoping to put that right this week, as she follows up her hit two-part BBC1 travelogue, The Chronicles of Nadiya, with brand new eight-part series, Nadiya’s British Food Adventure.
‘Of course there are the classic British staples, but our food has become so diverse now, as have the people. I’m often asked if I’m British and of course I am!’ Nadiya tells us.
‘If you think about the origin of most of our favourite dishes, they’ve usually been introduced because travellers have settled here and brought their food with them. For me British food is what I grew up with, and that wasn’t necessarily pie and mash.
‘As I’ve travelled across the country for this series I’ve met so many different people and they all describe their food as British.’
Starting in the Home Counties, the series takes us across the length and breadth of the UK, as Nadiya, 32, meets the people who grow our produce. And of course she uses the incredible fresh ingredients to inspire her own recipes.
