Cooking on a Farm with Annemarie Ahearn

Join Annemarie as she reads an excerpt from the April chapter intro introducing spring in Maine from Modern Country Cooking. Then, pick the asparagus and herbs and head into the kitchen to make a quick and delicious salad.

Annemarie Ahearn lives on the Coast of Maine with her husband, daughter, and two Australian Shepherds. After attending culinary school and working in the food industry for a decade, in 2009, Annemarie founded Salt Water Farm Cooking School in an old post-and-beam barn overlooking the Penobscot Bay. There, she teaches how to cook instinctively, using produce from her beautiful seaside vegetable gardens, fish from the bay, meat from local farms, and foraged goods from Maine’s forested hillsides. Her work and writing have garnered acclaim from publications such as DownEast Magazine, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, the Boston Globe, Bon Appetit, and Maine Magazine. Her two books, Full Moon Suppers, and Modern Country Cooking are both available now from Roost Books and wherever books are sold.
