With recipes gathered from libraries, manuscripts, and the Old Line Plate collection of over 300 regional cookbooks, this expedition through history and geography weaves together the stories of people from around the world who have made a home in Maryland.

Indulge in a Kinkling on Fat Tuesday; celebrate Passover and Easter in East Baltimore; taste cookies from the oldest Maryland cookbook; be the first to visit neighbors on New Year’s Day in St. Mary’s County; engage in Christmas mayhem and blame the eggnog; find out why the Frostburg post office smells like saffron in December; stuff your Thanksgiving turkey with oysters from the Eastern Shore, and please, don’t forget the sauerkraut!

Holidays in the Old Line State have taken many forms, but there is usually something good on the table, drawing family and friends together. Come make a plate.

Featuring recipes by Rachel Rappaport so you can recreate these traditions at home. Foreword by John Shields.
