This week I have Kara Mae Harris of the blog Old LIne Plate, where she's been exploring Maryland foodways since 2010. Last year, Kara released a book titled Old Line Plate, the same as her blog. It was a collection of some of her favorite posts throughout the years. But it’s more as a historical document, than a straightforward cookbook. This October Kara's back with a new cookbook called Festive Maryland Recipes. For this book, Kara worked with a recipe developer to make sure the recipes were ones people could execute at home.   Topics Discussed Maryland cookbooks Stuffed Ham Crab cakes Maryland Fried chicken White potato pie Cookbook writing Reading and adapting old recipes Secret recipes KARA MAE HARRIS Old Line Plate Kara's Instagram Kara's books Festive Maryland Recipes and Old Line Plate CHEFS WITHOUT RESTAURANTS If you enjoy the show and would like to support it financially, please check out our Sponsorship page (we get a commission when you use our links).   Get the Chefs Without Restaurants Newsletter Chefs Without Restaurants Instagram Chefs Without Restaurants on TikTok Chefs Without Restaurants on YouTube The Chefs Without Restaurants Private Facebook Group Chris Spear's personal chef business Perfect Little Bites SPONSOR INFO United States Personal Chef Association This episode is sponsored by the Unites States Personal Chef Association.
