What You Will Learn

In this class, Donald will be talking about dredging for oysters – under sail on a skipjack (the state boat!) and power dredging. Then Chef Gwyn will show you how to make three fantastic oyster dishes.

 

The Waterman & The Chef is an ongoing series that offers a unique look at a husband and wife duo who harvest and prepare the best the Chesapeake Bay region has to offer. Peppered with a bit of history and humor, the series is hosted by Donald Novak, a waterman of nearly 40 years, and his wife Chef Gwyn. Each episode follows the Novaks as Donald harvests a specific catch and Chef Gwyn creates a variety of amazing dishes using it as the centerpiece. The series also features guest appearances by colleagues in their respective industries, such as scallopers off Ocean City and Michelin-star chefs in their own kitchens. The Waterman & the Chef is a flavorful dive into Maryland history, cuisine, and culture like none other!

Menu

  • Oysters Canvasback (on the half shell roasted with bacon, butter, brandy, fresh thyme, and Parmesan)
