Nan the Wiser

Sheila Dillon explores how our grannies' cooking can shape who we are—and asks what we lose if we let go of those traditions.

Guests include:

Vicky Bennison, founder of YouTube channel Pasta Grannies.
Food Writer Clare Finney, and her Grandma Joan Fox.
Chet Sharma, chef patron of Bibi, a restaurant named in honour of his grandmothers.
Dr Fiona Lavelle from Kings College London, who is researching cooking skills and how they're passed on.
and Pauline Crosby, a grandma from Norfolk who is shortlisted for the title of "Nan from Del Monte".
