Martha Stewart turned up the heat in a tweet about her former business partner.

Stewart plans to give viewers a ‘culinary master class’ with her new weekly PBS series, ‘Martha Stewart’s Cooking School,’ which is based on her best-selling book.

But in making the announcement, Stewart also took a swipe at her former network, the Hallmark Channel, which is regrouping after its failed 2-year-old partnership with Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia. The cable network is phasing out Stewart’s programming.

‘The response to our announcement for a PBS cooking school series is wonderful,’ Stewart tweeted. ‘Easy access to PBS as opposed to Hallmark will be wonderful.’

‘Martha Stewart’s Cooking School’ will debut this fall, and feature Stewart demonstrating cooking techniques and basics.
