Irish chef Alan Fisher now holds the record for the longest cooking hours, clocking in an impressive 119 hours and 57 minutes, surpassing the previous record held by Nigeria's Hilda Baci by more than 24 hours," the British organization Guinness World Records announced on Tuesday.
"Alan Fisher (Ireland), the owner and chef of a restaurant in Japan, has achieved two cooking-related Guinness World Records titles," they added.
"He has secured the title for the longest cooking marathon (individual) with a time of 119 hours and 57 minutes, surpassing the previous record held by Nigerian chef Hilda Baci."
In addition to the longest cooking marathon, Alan also broke the record for the longest baking marathon (individual), completing it in 47 hours and 21 minutes. The previous record holder, Wendy Sandner (USA), had a time of 31 hours and 16 minutes," Guinness World Records reported.
"What's even more impressive is that Alan took on both attempts back-to-back, spending over 160 hours in the kitchen with just over a day of rest in between!" the announcement continued.
During his nine-day cooking and baking marathon, Alan produced 357 kg of soda bread and 590 kg of dishes, totaling 3,360 portions consisting of 32 recipes.
Hilda Baci's record-breaking achievement occurred nearly five months before Alan Fisher's feat. She broke the previous record of 87 hours and 45 minutes held by India's Lata Tondon since 2019.
Hilda stated that her motivation was to "put Nigerian cuisine on the map" and to "inspire young African women to chase their dreams."
"I also decided to break this record to truly push my limits and test my abilities," she added.
