 On her legendary career and her new collection of teatime treats
Marguerite Patten has been teaching Britain how to cook since the 1930s. This week, the doyenne of British cookery joins Woman's Hour to celebrate her 90th birthday.
Her career is legendary - we take a look back at how she came to be the most prolific cookery writer ever, and revisit some of the highs and the lows of British cuisine over the past six decades.
And Martha finds out more about Marguerite's latest collection of recipes, 100 Top Teatime Treats, and asks her some of your questions.
Marguerite Patten's 100 Top Teatime Treats is available from Grub Street Publishing, ISBN:1904943292
