This week: Ottolenghi YouTube series, Fortnum & Mason Food Award winners, GBBO air date confirmed, upcoming books from GBBO stars and more

Mark your calendars! Channel 4 has confirmed that The Great British Bake Off will return on 21 September. This is the second series to be filmed with strict regulations to reduce the potential spread of COVID on the set. The good news this year is that there appears to be no shortage of flour or yeast. 

Netflix will stream the shows in the US three days after the UK airing. Accordingly, the first episode will land in the US on Friday, September 24th. I can already hear the comforting theme music playing in my head.

Last week, I updated my post: Which Great British Bake Off Contestants have written books and will share a few of the highlights below:

• The Great British Bake Off: A Bake for All Seasons (Sep 30, 2021 UK; Nov 30, 2021 US) is the book released each year which shares recipes from the bakers and judges.
• Kim-Joy Celebrate with Kim-Joy (Sep 2021)
• Ruby Tandoh – Cook As You Are: Recipes for Real Life, Hungry Cooks and Messy Kitchens (Oct 2021)
• Nadiya Hussain – Nadiya’s Fast Flavours (Oct 2021)
• Edd Kimber – One Tin Bakes Easy: Foolproof Cakes, Traybakes, Bars and Bites from Gluten-free to Vegan and Beyond (Oct 2021) and Small Batch Bakes (Aug 2022)
• Michelle Evans-Fecci (Bake Off 2019) – The Seasonal Baker: Baking All Year Round (May 2022)
• Paul Hollywood – Bake: My Best Ever Recipes for the Classics (Jun 2022)

Darcie and I will prepare our weekly Bake Off recap post beginning September 27th.
