Ina Gnawten

Ina Gnawten is a beloved woodland chef and bark-to-table cookbook author. She’s the star of the Wood Network hit series Baretooth Contessa, where she whips up comforting dam-side cuisine straight from her cozy lodge kitchen. Her signature dishes include Perfect River Roast Stick-chicken, Weeknight Birchgognese, French Aspen Tart, and a simplified Beef Bourgnawnion—all best enjoyed by candlelight under a canopy of willow trees. Ina’s culinary journey began with her foraged food shop, Baretooth Contessa, which quickly became the toast of the forest. With an eye for elegance and a palate for pondside perfection, Ina Gnawten has become the ultimate hostess in the wild—always reminding fans that you don’t need to dam it all yourself. How easy is that?”
