Oysters, Oysters Everywhere 56th Annual U.S. Oyster Festival

Chesapeake Farm & Bay to Table

Whether slurped raw, fried, baked, braised, or roasted, the Chesapeake oyster reigns supreme. Library CEO Mary Hastler will cheer on Chef John Shields as he judges the hotly contested U.S. Oyster Festival Cook-Off. With him in the judge's stand is this episode's special guest Gwyn Novak, chef, author, and owner of No Thyme To Cook Cooking School in beautiful Solomons, Maryland. Then it's back to the kitchen where we'll cook up some delicious recipes and, of course, have lots of fun.
