The nineteenth century saw the development of industries based on the bounty of the Bay and the rising popularity of oysters, blue crab and turtle soup throughout the greater Mid-Atlantic. Waves of immigrants brought their own cuisines to the mix, and colcannon, brisket, sauerkraut and fish peppers are now found on Chesapeake tables.

Download or read book Maryland s Chesapeake written by Neal Patterson and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-08-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The culinary heritage of most regions in the US is often determined by the ethnic cuisine of those who settled there, whether it be the Cajun/Creole food of Louisiana or the Italian-inspired fare of the Northeast. For Maryland, the food that defines the state is less about the ethnicity of the population than the bounty which springs forth from the Chesapeake Bay. The Native Americans, British, Germans, and Poles were all influenced by the variety of fish, oysters, clams, crabs, and terrapins that could be harvested from the largest estuary in North America. In addition to seafood, other dishes associated with the region were developed because of the unique lifestyle created by living along the water. The Smith Island cake, for example, was created as a sturdy dessert that fishermen could take aboard ship during their long days fishing the Chesapeake. Also, the wealthy landowners who first arrived in Maryland, seeking elegant dishes for their lavish dinner parties, concocted ingenious uses for the chickens, squirrels, muskrats, and produce available on the fertile lands along the Bay. The book is not just about the past, however. The recent trend of sustainability and eating local has brought about a grassroots effort to preserve the delicate nature of the Chesapeake Bay. Modern techniques such as oyster farming and fishing invasive species to protect the indigenous flora and fauna will be explored. Of course, recipes will be presented to not only illustrate classic dishes that developed over time, but also modern versions created by some of Maryland’s top chefs.

Book excerpt: This Deluxe Author's Edition covers the course of 400 years, where people have been growing, cooking, eating and drinking various foods and beverages creating a singular Mid-Atlantic cuisine that we all enjoy today. It should be noted that the food pathways of the Mid-Atlantic encompasses the states of New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Maryland and the Eastern Shore of Virginia. Because of the geography, climate and the abundance of natural resources in terms of fish, game, and vegetation found along the Chesapeake Bay, the influences of these particular states on the cuisine in this region of the United States are extremely diverse and eclectic, due to the food narratives of the indigenous peoples, explorers and colonists, Africans that were both frees and enslaved and the immigrant experience. Many of the port cities in the Mid-Atlantic also served as a gateway for immigrants from all over the world, bringing with them the various dishes and culinary traditions.

Download or read book A South You Never Ate written by Bernard L. Herman and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nestled between the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, and stretching from Hampton Roads to Assateague Island, Virginia's Eastern Shore is a distinctly southern place with an exceptionally southern taste. In this inviting narrative, Bernard L. Herman welcomes readers into the communities, stories, and flavors that season a land where the distance from tide to tide is often less than five miles. Blending personal observation, history, memories of harvests and feasts, and recipes, Herman tells of life along the Eastern Shore through the eyes of its growers, watermen, oyster and clam farmers, foragers, church cooks, restaurant owners, and everyday residents. Four centuries of encounter, imagination, and invention continue to shape the foodways of the Eastern Shore of Virginia, melding influences from Indigenous peoples, European migrants, enslaved and free West Africans, and more recent newcomers. Herman reveals how local ingredients and the cooks who have prepared them for the table have developed a distinctly American terroir--the flavors of a place experienced through its culinary and storytelling traditions. This terroir flourishes even as it confronts challenges from climate change, declining fish populations, and farming monoculture. Herman reveals this resilience through the recipes and celebrations that hold meaning, not just for those who live there but for all those folks who sit at their tables--and other tables near and far.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fresh and simple recipes that celebrate the bounty of the Chesapeake Bay region—and protect its environment—from a renowned Maryland chef. Captain John Smith, upon entering the Chesapeake, wrote in his diaries that the fish were so plentiful “we attempted to catch them with a frying pan.” That method sums up classic Chesapeake cooking?fresh and simple. In The New Chesapeake Kitchen, celebrated chef John Shields takes the best of what grows, swims, or grazes in the Bay’s watershed and prepares it simply, letting the pure flavors shine through. Honoring the farmers, watermen, butchers, cheese makers, and foragers who make the food movement around the Chesapeake Bay watershed possible, along with the environmental and food organizations working to restore the Bay, the land, and food security, Shields promotes a healthy locavore diet and a holistic view of community foodways. This scrumptious book, with beautiful full-color images by former Baltimore Sun Magazine photographer David W. Harp, urges readers to choose local, seasonal ingredients. Presenting what he dubs “Bay- and body-friendly food,” Shields advocates for a plant-forward and sustainable diet. He presents creative and healthy choices, including one-pot recipes like Fishing Creek Seafood Chili, Old Line Veggie Creole Oyster Stew, and Spring Pea Soup with Tarragon-Truffle Oil. Also included are directions for canning, preserving, and fermenting. Shields offers many vegan- and vegetarian-friendly options, as well as innovative takes on Chesapeake classics. You’ll find dozens of delicious dishes, from Aunt Bessie’s Crab Pudding and Hutzler’s Cheese Bread to “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Crab” Cakes, Blue Cat Seafood Hash, and an array of savory soups, braised meats, luscious desserts, and green breakfast smoothies?even recipes for a locavore cocktail party!
