Description

"It's a Kraut Fest" is the theme of the January 26 episode of "Chesapeake Farm & Bay to Table," a virtual series produced by Harford County Public Library and Chef John Shields' Our Common Table, that highlights Maryland farms, fisheries and local businesses. The program will be presented via Zoom from 7 to 8 p.m.
 
Gertrude’s Chesapeake Kitchen’s “Krautfest” has been a staple in Baltimore for nearly two decades. In this episode, viewers will enjoy a behind-the-scenes look at this fun-filled two-day event, which sells out almost immediately and celebrates all things kraut.
 
Joining Chef John and Harford County Public Library CEO Mary Hastler will be the Food Network’s Chopped finalist, Chef Doug Wetzel, and Sonya Binkert, co-owner of Binkert’s German Meat Products in Rosedale. During the program, they will explore the Krautfest secrets of champagne kraut, stuffed cabbage rolls and a double chocolate sauerkraut cake.
