New England Oyster Farming With Row 34 Chef Jeremy Sewall in Portsmouth, New Hampshire

Portsmouth, New Hampshire is well-known as a fishing hub-turned-foodie destination, and that’s especially true when it comes to oysters. In this season one segment from “Weekends with Yankee” (episode 103), we’re with James Beard Award-winning chef Jeremy Sewell at the Portsmouth location of his acclaimed New England Oyster bar, Row 34. Learn how purveyors like Jay Baker from Fat Dog Oysters take advantage of the Great Bay Estuary to cultivate and harvest the freshest oysters at a low impact to the environment, then join Amy back at the restaurant, where Jeremy makes his widely-loved Oyster Stew with a secret ingredient to top it all off.
