Culinary Explorations
Oyster Shucking
Join our ecologist, Will, for this raw culinary experience. You’ll be introduced to the history of oystering in the Chesapeake Bay region, the modern aquaculture of the Eastern Oyster, and the safe techniques of oyster shucking. While you shuck, learn why the flavors of oysters vary according to where they’re harvested and the temperature of the water. At the end of your feast, we invite you to contribute to our restoration efforts by adding the empty oyster shells to our Living Shoreline.
Farm to Fork
An artful salad is an endeavor that unites farm and kitchen. Join our farmer in harvesting seasonal produce and herbs, then get hands-on with our chefs in the kitchen - from washing and drying to mincing and tossing. Finish with learning to balance the perfect vinaigrette.
Pasta Making
Does pasta taste just a little bit better in your favorite restaurant than when you make it at home? Gain insights into the best-kept restaurant chef secrets from our culinary team at Salt & Meadow. Get hands-on as you learn to make pasta from scratch with traditional ingredients, including fresh eggs and Italian chef's flour. Of course, you'll also need a seasonal sauce or filling to create a finished dish. Go home with recipes for all of your creations.
