Australian actors Pia Miranda and Adam Liaw have teamed up to host a new cooking competition that challenges amateur home cooks to recreate recipes from the Country Women’s Association (CWA) with precision and care. The series invites participants to first present a family dish that impresses not only the hosts but also the discerning members of the CWA, a prominent community organization known for preserving traditional recipes.

Contestants present a diverse range of dishes, including spiced chicken meatballs and Christmas-themed cupcakes, each accompanied by personal stories that highlight their connection to the recipes. Successful participants earn a place on the show, where they face further culinary challenges.

Once selected, competitors are tasked with preparing a 120-year-old recipe, testing their baking skills and attention to detail. This historic culinary challenge is designed to push even experienced cooks, emphasizing authenticity and technique.

The program blends elements of cooking and storytelling, spotlighting the cultural heritage embodied in the CWA’s extensive recipe collection while celebrating the passion of home cooks striving to honor tradition through their craft.
