Joyce White: COOKING MARYLAND'S WAY (with Kara Harris)

In 1963, the Hammond-Harwood House Association published Maryland’s Way, The Hammond-Harwood House Cook Book, which includes over 700 recipes sourced from centuries’ old manuscript recipe books and contributions from Marylanders from across the state. Since its inception over 60 years ago, it has sold over 100,000 copies and is still in demand today.

In the new companion book, Cooking Maryland’s Way: Voices of a Diverse Cuisine, food historian Joyce M. White, supported by several contributing authors, reflects on the chief cultural influences of Maryland’s early foundational cuisine: Native American, African American, German, and British. Extensive research on both the foods and their method of preparation brings the history of Maryland’s diverse cuisine into sharp focus.

The Ivy is delighted to celebrate this seminal volume with a conversation between Joyce White and contributing author Kara Harris, followed by a Q&A and book signing.

Books and refreshments will be available at the event.
