“The Blogger Quietly Preserving Maryland’s Culinary History” — Kristina Gaddy, Gastro Obscura

“Kara Mae Harris is dedicated to preserving Maryland’s culinary history. Harris documents her culinary escapades on her blog OldLinePlate.com, which also explores the history of famous Baltimore fare, including the true story of crab cakes and origin of fudge in Charm City. Since 2011, Harris has been entering Maryland-based recipes from traditional cookbooks she found on eBay and at the Enoch Pratt Free Library into a database that now boasts thousands of entries.” — Maria Eberhart, The Washington Post

“Harris has chronicled her culinary adventures on her blog, oldlineplate.com. The dishes she makes are at turns familiar and strange to modern palates: Baltimore peach cake, peanut-pickle sandwiches, vinegar candy and chicken terrapin (a turtle-free take on the Maryland specialty).” — Christina Tkacik, The Baltimore Sun
