About this episode

Maggie Beer, cook, author and founder of the Maggie Beer Foundation, joins Sarah Macdonald to talk about why food is one of the clearest signs of whether an aged care home is doing right by its residents. She shares her one-line test for touring a home, why older palates need more salt and sugar to taste properly, and why cooking with your ageing parent, not just for them, might matter more than the recipe itself.
