Born in 1912, Sylvia Hunt came to life on TV screens in the early 1960s with her cooking show “At Home With Sylvia Hunt”, aired on the only local station available at the time, TTT, with high viewership at “primetime” before Panorama. Hunt’s show, which aired for more than two decades, was not only a first in the region as a programme focused on cooking but also pre-empted the shows of other legendary TV cooks like Julia Child and Martha Stewart.

Her show documented our indigenous recipes, and according to her daughter Diana Sambrano, many people anticipated the show with pens poised to transcribe new recipes. Although “eating local” is en vogue at present, in the 1960s, televising a programme on local foods was a clarion statement to the worthiness of our foods and culture to be celebrated and documented.
