Royal Caribbean The Local: Alaska | E.2 Culinary Connector
Description from YouTube
The Local, a Royal Caribbean original series, celebrates people around the world, their unique passions and their culture. In our premier season, we highlight three locals from Alaska. Episode 2: Managing editor and founder of Edible Alaska and all around food enthusiast, Mary Smith. Mary graduated from the Culinary Institute of America and spent 15 years in the seafood industry. When Mary is not traveling Alaska looking for food stories, she works with her husband, David Whitmire, as a commercial fisherman. In this episode of The Local, Mary takes us on a culinary journey from Anchorage to Homer as she searches for stories and opportunities to connect with people in the Alaska food community. Along the way she visits restaurants, chefs, oyster farms and farmers markets. From this episode: Kachemak Shellfish Growers Co-op: https://alaskaoyster.com/ The co-op consists of 12 farms on the east side of Kachemak Bay, along with a commercial building in Homer, Alaska. The building is used to sort, pack and ship to the public; but best of all, the building has a charming craft oyster bar that overlooks the bay. Tilgner’s Specialized Smoked Seafood Products: http://www.rubyredsockeye.com/ Tilgner’s is family owned and has thirty-five years of experience producing smoked seafood products. Their seafood and ingredients are all locally sourced, expect for one signature flavor, Caribbean rum. They use the old-world method of dry salt brining followed by the introduction of special flavors from virgin olive oils, natural sweeteners and infusions with spirits of the Caribbean. Which we love! Chilly Root Peony Farm: http://chillyrootpeonyfarm.com/ Chilly Root Peony Farm is an Alaska family owned small flower farm located on the Kenai Peninsula, overlooking stunning Kachemak Bay. They established the peony farm on their rural homesite in 2009 to complement their ongoing commercial fishing careers in Alaska. The Chilly Root Peony Farm ships their flowers all around the world. Homer Farmers Market: http://www.homerfarmersmarket.org/ The Homer Farmers Market was established in 2000 to aid in the development of a sustainable local agricultural community for the benefit of the greater community of the Kachemak Bay area. The market is open Saturday and Wednesday, from late May to late September. You’ll be surprised by what you’ll find — try the ultra spicy Cajun kettle corn, if you dare. Coal Point Seafood Co.: http://www.welovefish.com/index.html Located right off the docks of Homer Harbor, Coal Point Seafood buys direct from fishermen daily to ensure the finest wild-caught Alaska seafood. Everything they buy is cut, packed and frozen the same day. They ship around the world, so of course we sent some back to our families.
