I think #BlackGirlMagic in the kitchen needs a moment of its own. It’s nothing short of amazing how these women can transform simple ingredients from the earth — well, mostly — and create beautifully-crafted, decadent dishes. From vegan to flexitarian, these black women can be found cooking up a storm and sharing their masterpieces for us to drool over and replicate with hopes of similar success.

Here are 11 black women chefs to follow:

1. Chef Lauren Von Der Pool
