The culinary world is an outstanding world made picture-perfect with the image of a female chef cooking some of the most exquisite cuisines. Although that’s the image generally portrayed, very few women can battle out and emerge as notable chefs. This international women’s day 2023, let’s glimpse into the world of cooking.
Like any other field, women are battling their way out, even in the culinary domain. Looking at a general household, kitchens are the favorite spot for anyone to hang out. It is that place where our moms cook some of our favorite dishes, which are irreplaceable in terms of taste, hygiene, and love.
Unrecognized talent
Ironically, millions of moms are out there who are left unrecognized for their talent and passion, whether by family, friends or anyone. The moment they step out of their kitchens’ comfort zone, it becomes a tough battle to compete and come up in this still male-centric society. Various factors are meant to be challenged apart from the everyday prejudices of being a woman.
However, many women chef have been able to step out into the big picture with their culinary skills. While still struggling fiercely. Very few female chefs have been able to make it to the top. Some of them share the world kitchen with top chefs like Gordon Ramsay, Jamie Oliver, Wolfgang Puck and much more.
Many women like them have been able to move forward and fight for other women to get opportunities as them. Some are doing their best, although they still remain unsung heroes. However, with the progress made by both men and women in creating an equal stratum for both genders, many platforms have come up to support the various talents of women across the globe.
These days, the growth of food techs has hiked due to constant demand, especially when healthy and homemade food is a booming market. Many platforms like MasalaBox have created the concept of distributing homemade food fresh from home kitchens. And by using home women chef and their talent for cooking. Although such platforms exist, the accessibility to such information of such opportunities still remains a dream for many.
This International Women’s Day, let’s take a moment to applaud for all the women out there. And recognized or not, who have been able to make a difference and be role models.
