Exploring Maryland's Historic Cookbooks

Greenbelt Museum

Vintage cookbooks are so much more than just collections of recipes!

Historic recipes can give us a taste of the food that Maryland was once famous for. They can also offer a window into the past: changing times and trends, and the lives of everyday people. Kara Harris, our speaker, will share some of the recipes and history that she&#x27;s collected while doing research for her blog, <a href="https://oldlineplate.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Old Line Plate</a>. The blog is chock full of fascinating and well researched information as Harris maintains a database of over 50,000 recipes from Maryland cookbooks and manuscripts housed in libraries and archives around the country. She has appeared in local and national publications, TV and radio, including the Baltimore Sun, CBS Mornings, and WYPR.This is a virtual event. Please register in advance. This event is free!
