"The world now celebrates her cooking principles as well as her role as a longtime food influencer. By any definition of the term, her word carries weight, which she uses on many levels - including participation in an "Ask me Anything" (AMA) session on her official Reddit account in August 2013. That's where the acclaimed food personality directly supported meal times inside the home rather than in restaurants."
""The best cooking advice I can give is to start simple and then build on your success from there," said Lakshmi. "The family that cooks together eats better, is healthier, and is closer emotionally to each other." But that doesn't necessarily mean devoting huge amounts of time to developing intricate, pro-level meals. Obviously, a chef with the stature of Padma Lakshmi could strut her stuff, advocating homemade-meal concepts that intimidate to the average home chef."
Padma Lakshmi prioritizes eating at home and identifies as a home cook while also serving as a prominent food influencer.
