It's berry-picking time in and around Zone 7, and Karen Nitkin hasa story in today's Tastea section about the annual summetime ritual.
Home bakers pick their own berries and so do restaurant chefs. Karen's story includes a recipe for black raspberry peach cobbler from Matt Dixon of Bistro Blanc and a guide to area farms where you can pick berries.
I'm headed for the archives to find some more berries on Baltimore menus, but drop a comment if you've seen some. Here's the link to Karen's story.
