Guinness and Treacle Bread
This bread is an old favourite of mine, originally created for the Michelin-starred restaurant at the Dorchester. Serve as a sandwich, piled high with crisp green salad, roasted red and yellow peppers and slivers of mustard-roasted beef. You need to start this the day before.
