‘Ayesha Curry CAN cook.’ Mrs. Stephen Curry is multifaceted, one of which is being a chef. And her culinary skills are a huge advantage for Stephen Curry. He follows a strict diet and maintains an intake of 3000 calories. And on game days especially, he ensures to have Ayesha Curry’s legendary “game day pasta.” As the Golden State Warriors face the Orlando Magic tonight, Mrs. Curry is on a mission to get the win as she prepares a wholesome meal for Curry before the game.

The Golden Boy’s wife took to her Instagram story to share the appetizing breakfast she had cooked for him. She captioned the post, “Game day breakfast for my chooch.” And it surely looked like it did have a good portion of everything – protein, carbs, and fiber.

In an interview last November, Steph revealed that his dietary strategy on game day included targeting a calorie intake of 3000. This included vegetables, chicken, salmon, pasta, and rice. We all know his pre-game ritual of eating pasta. In an interview in 2017, Ayesha said,  “From beginning to the end of the season, [I make] my game day pasta recipe.” It is almost 15 years now and she still makes it for The Baby-Faced Assassin. She added, “I sneak eggplant, spinach, and all sorts of goodies into the sauce. I make it before every single game.”

As many might be aware, Steph has also been known to stray a bit from his healthier diet and eat PB&J for his pre-game meal. Who would’ve guessed the world’s best shooter runs on a childhood staple?

Interestingly, even Chef Curry’s higher-than-average calorie intake is still 600 calories less than an average American. Just goes to show his dedication to staying fit and his wife’s skill in keeping up with his lifestyle. But how did Mrs. Curry get this pro at cooking? Does she have a background in it?

Ayesha Curry’s cultural background influences cooking

In an interview in 2019, Ayesha Curry was candid in sharing her connection with food. She said “My cultural upbringing is everything when it comes to my food. My mom’s Chinese and Jamaican, my dad’s Polish and black…I love that I can be kind of like a poster child for cultures fusing together and coming together and a poster child of family and togetherness because food really is love.”

And 3 things Ayesha loves the most are food, family, and functionality. That’s how she stepped into the professional culinary and lifestyle world. Food is something everyone in the world can relate to anywhere. She spoke about her underdog culinary beginnings and said, “I feel like I came in and just jumbled crap up. People like Chef Michael Mina have been very helpful… One thing that he told me was you can go to culinary school and you can learn the basic skills you need, but you can’t learn flavor and you can’t learn finesse…”
