Visibility does not equal value šŸ‘šŸ‘šŸ‘ This @AsmaKhanLondon moment from our #ShineAway event last year left the room in awe. To emphasize the often-unseen value of women in the cooking world, chef Asma Khan staffed the kitchen at her restaurant @DarjeelingLDN with an all-woman team, many of whom are South Asian immigrants like Asma herself. Today, Darjeeling Express is an acclaimed hotspot, and her latest cookbook, "Monsoon: Delicious Indian Recipes for Every Day and Season," hit shelves this March. Asma couldn't see the representation in cooking that she needed, so she became it — and brought the talents and labor of other women to light alongside her own. At #ShineAway's #ASeatAtHerTable panel, Asma encouraged the audience to do the same ā˜€ļø Leave a šŸ™Œ in the comments if you're inspired by Asma's words — and if you became something you couldn't see, we'd love to hear your story, too šŸ’› P.S.: Looking for updates about our #ShineAway event? šŸ‘€ Sign up for our newsletter at the link...
