Chef Bio: Annie Mahle

For over 30 years, Annie has honed her craft with both knife and pen. She started working on windjammers as a mess cook and quickly developed a lifelong passion for cooking, gardening, sailing and outdoor living. Annie’s recipes and cookbooks have been highlighted on the Today Show and Throwdown with Bobby Flay. Her food and the J. & E. Riggin schooner have been featured in dozens of national media outlets, including FoodNetwork.com, Traditional Home, Family Circle, Women’s Day and The Boston Globe. Yankee Magazine has twice named the J. & E. Riggin as one of the “Top 10 Places to have Dinner with a View in Maine.” During the winter when she’s not out on the open waters, Annie continues to create new recipes and share them on her blog, At Home & At Sea.
