Presenter Adam Liaw, says:

“The continued love and support for The Cook Up and everything that it stands for is something I am truly grateful for every day. We’ve had some exceptional guests, stories and food on the show over 400 episodes and I’m incredibly excited to be back for what will be another brilliant season. The Cook Up was created to provide Aussies with real achievable home cooked food that everyone can make, and that also reflects the different backgrounds Australians come from. For Season Four, we’ll have even more chefs, home cooks, comedians, authors, journalists, singers, actors, sports stars, and everything in between. There will be plenty of fresh new themes as well including underrated ingredients, favourite TV dinners and the perfect dishes for dining alfresco at home.”

Emily Griggs, SBS Head of Food, says:

“Watching The Cook Up is like preparing dinner with friends, there’s some laughs and always something new to learn. To be able to celebrate different cultures through cooking is truly something special. We’re thrilled to be announcing the fourth season and know that there’s plenty of recipes to love and try at home.”

So glad that The Cook Up is returning for another season. Fourth season already? Nice. It’s such an underrated show. Although i dont watch the first offering at 7pm all that often, i do tend to watch the repeats that air at around the 10.30pm mark as much as i can.
Adam Liaw is such a natural host.
