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.

Join me on a walking tour of Baltimore’s culinary history as we visit the grave sites of cookbook authors, recipe collectors, food industry barons, renowned hosts, politicians who shared recipes, and everyday people. Learn about their lives and legacies and the recipes they left behind. Some dishes have remained in the Maryland culinary hall of fame while others may have quietly been forgotten, but all are a part of Baltimore and Maryland’s food heritage and the state and city’s complicated past.
Over a decade in the making; what began as an idea to picnic at the grave of one person gradually blossomed as I traced more and more of my research subjects to their final resting place at Green Mount Cemetery.
